IIRC several years ago someone wrote a script that would split up pgp into
multiple parts (say 100) and then each e-mail message they sent out would
have a different part at the bottom of the message.
DeCSS is small, couldn't something similar be set up? Say 2 or 3 lines of
code on the bottom of every e-mail message?
Hmmm ... I think I'll take a look at this tonight.
