That is precisely the point. With proxy re-encryption 'recryption' you
do not need to trust the mailing list server. Only the list admin
needs to be trusted with the master decryption key.

And you would have to trust the mailing list software verified that the
incoming email was encrypted, and by a trusted source, and only accepted
encrypted email.

If the list server accepted unencrypted email, encrypted it with the
lists key, would anyone be able to tell?
