I don't remember asking it before, but one reason I don't like Truecrypt is that
I use Duplicity to backup my local files, so having the individually encrypted
makes things easier (since it'll just ignore the ones already backed up). Adding
them to the truecrypt container would cause the entire thing to change (ignoring
homomorphic encryption or things iterating towards that).

Thanks, that's interesting reading. I use `getmail` to grab the messages, and
just pass them through gpg when this runs, so it works well for what I want.
