There are two types of re-encryption that I think are inappropriate:

  - when the mailing list software decrypts and reencrypts each
    message before forwarding it on to the list of subscriber, and,

As soon as you are in the need for a mailing list you have severe opsec
problems which I consider not solvable: You not only need to fully trust
all participants but also need to make sure that _all_ their boxes are
properly secured against attacks.

Adding another box to reencrypt the messages does not change the picture
much more than adding another subscriber.

I heard that Schleuder (schleuder.nadir.org or apt-get install schleuder)
is a matured tool for encrypted group communication.
