[comp.emacs] Emacs encryption of mail?

Hello, before I spend the weekend elisphacking I thought I'd ask:

Does anybody have a way to use GNU-emacs "rmail" with automatic
encryption of RMAIL files and output files? I would like a version of
RMAIL that would handle:

	- encryption of all mail files, incoming and outgoing
	  (RMAIL, SMAIL, and auxiliary output files, etc)
	- ability to send and receive encrypted mail

If anybody has done anything like this I would really appreciate the
help. Otherwise I plan to try and merge the standard rmail.el with
Kyle Jones's routines for automatically finding encrypted files, a
task which seemed non trivial when I tried it this evening :-)
