Whiteboard
The encryption folk are seriously in need of some marketing folk. I know that public key and private key are the accurate terms, but I'd love to see them replaced with "lock" and "key". People could understand that. You distribute your lock anywhere - you want people to have it. They lock an email for you, send it to you, and you unlock it with your key. Because it's digital, you can put as many locks on an email as you want. Anyone with a key to any lock can unlock the email.

We should consider using simple pages with big buttons to make it seem very easy... take a look at http://
We could have it so when the user drops a file onto the window, it will ask to sign or encrypt it. It should have a button to get keys from others and update your key.
The contacts app could have GPG tied into it as well which would scan each email address for a GPG key and offer to add it to the keyring.
