I do think there ought to be a way to do good cryptography in email. Email is not going away anytime soon, so giving up on it as a legitimate place where cryptography is needed seems too ivory tower for me. The “dead simple solution” is to just run the Signal protocol over SMTP, although I’m sure it’s possible there is a better design if you were to think about the specifics.
Why even bother at this point? PGP encryption in email is... not a good way to do secure communication.
Or are you referring to email
Reminds me of a tiny blog post I put up years ago about the future of archaeology. Forgive the silly site title.

Not if you want to interoperate with anything currently in existence. And if you don't, why bother building it on SMTP?
Is this the longest time between request/bug and fix?
