Why don't they use PGP for messages of this importance???
I can't control the sender's use of PGP.
(the excerpted bit from me which your mail client did something weird with instead of quoting follows:)
To be honest my target was more along the line of Sam Weiler's worries, namely, for people who are paranoid a warrant will show up and their machine will walk away. Presumably there's still the "wiretap" equivalent problem (someone gets a copy of the data before it's encrypted) but if it went over the wire in the clear you already have that problem. This only precludes the bits from being available at a later time, not any time up until they're encrypted.
