Peter,

An obvious problem with email certificates is that they open us to spam.
You promised you will not share (emails) what you promised to share (certs
with emails).  I am glad you agree your two promises were not consistent.

Also, please take a look at your message in the PKIX archive:
http://www.imc.org/ietf-pkix/mail-archive/msg02908.html
You will notice that PKIX protects your email address.

Of course, I am familiar with your name in this list. One more
reason for you to be thankful that I used my time to point out
what you missed. It can happen to any one of us.

Cheers,
Ed Gerck
