have posted here {incorrectly :(  } a few days ago about how to
achieve selective anonymity in a message encrypted to more than
one key, by using the fake_keyid command in Disastry's
2.6.3multi6.

it 'can' be done, but is somewhat more involved than the way i
posted it.

for those interested, the explanation / sample message / pgp
commands
are posted here:
http://www.angelfire.com/pr/pgpf/selanon.html

the encrypted message, and the two sample keys, are all done
using '3des', and not 'idea', to spare anyone the inconvenience
of changing anyone's gnupg build/setup.


it may be a useful concept/tool for consideration as an optional
gnupg feature

with Respect,

vedaal
