Encrypted mailing lists could be implemented more efficiently if the main message part would not have to be encrypted over and over again. (Because of padding, the reused session key should not be a problem even with RSA, but I'm not sure about that.) -- Florian Weimer Florian.Weimer@RUS.Uni-Stuttgart.DE University of Stuttgart http://cert.uni-stuttgart.de/ RUS-CERT +49-711-685-5973/fax +49-711-685-5898
