Absolutely, I am one of those myself, but keeping information
undisclosed does not enhance security. I would, in any case, suggest to
have (if needed) a remote access policy which is supported by
management. Typically what happens to very restrictive shops is that one
wise guy comes up and finds a way to fool us. So it is always better to
open up under strict rules.

BTW, Do you know why the list drops S/MIME signed messages?

cheers
