I'm more sure about the other two: dist(1) could recreate
a mime mail, since we need that mime-creation functionality
anyways. And as stated before I think one should verify a
mail only once. The first time you show(1) a PGP/MIME mail
it (asks for the password and decrypts and) tries to verify
the mail. (not a valid signature: delete or keep)
Ouch, the mail gets stored _unencrypted_? I think that's a terrible
idea. I'd be okay with adding code that did that, but I would never
support making that default behavior. One-time signature verification,
that is okay.
Regarding the other ideas about changing the back-end storage of messages;
I _myself_ am not interested in writing that code. If someone else wants
to write that code, I would be supportive of adding it to nmh (but we'd
have to think about compatibility, etc etc). So have at it, gentlemen!
