 WvV> Yes. With or without pgp/gpg content.

Hmmm..  Too bad networked (via FTN) BBSes don't stress that  
opaqueness as pretty-good-isolation from internet collection  
then.

Well.. I thought that if it becomes known that BBSes are the  
transport mechanism for secret/suspect messages, then the spys  
could investigate the BBS and owners and choose to knock on
