We decided that an email client should not handle keys. This should be 
done by an external application like gpa or geheimnis.

Not the user. But the german government might complain about this. After 
all they paid for the Aegypten project.


Anyway, could you two please stop your personal flame war.

I agree with George that it's very unfortunate that the Aegypten project 
doesn't use KSSL. One main reason for this was the limited time for the 
Aegypten project. Unfortunately the Aegypten developers don't have the 
luxury of unlimited development time which we free developers have. 
Therefore they were forced to make the unfortunate decission not to use 
KSSL.
