Ah, cool. That all makes sense. I think I like the flow of things as
they are.

I wouldn't mind to be a beta-tester for that. Let me know if you merge
it, or share the changes in another branch or something.
After thinking a little about this I think it's the receiving of
encrypted/signed emails that's cumbersome to deal with at the moment.
If I'm not completely daft it seems like sending is infinitely flexible
through the hooks system.

I'll see if I can't get my head around this red-corundum language you're
using and take a stab at adding this. ;-)
One more question, is there anything "site specific" in the state data
sup maintains? Would I run into problem if I use rsync/unison to
synchronise sup's state to several machines?
