	Well, this is interesting, but I'm also a little skeptical since
the page seems to be just a little too full of marketing fluff.

	Also, this requires all email to go through their server, and I
don't like that.  I don't think that's a security risk (unless you've
elected to store your private key with them), but I do think it ties you
to their service a little too closely.

	Also, it doesn't appear to interoperate with existing encryption
standards for secure email, and that's also a big minus.

	It's interesting that it's written in Java.

Have fun (if at all possible),
