Actually, no. I'd be interested in hearing the details. If he said something
in his subject line (I'm assuming the body of the message was encrypted)
like "I'm going to off Clinton"....then he's screwed as US law specifically
allows the authorities to nab you simply for threatening the president.

If it was a generic eyecatcher (ie Clintons Assassination) in an encrypted
message, it might be a pretty thin call as to whether it was genuine
investigation or harrassment.

I tnink you could be subtle about it. I would bounce it through julf's
anon.penet.fi server from a US address to my Canadian address. If the
message never arrived, then it would show a disturbing tendency on the
part of the NSA to interrupt mail traffic.

If I get a message at either my Canadian or US addresses from the spooks
the situation is worse....interference with the anon routings not only
in the US but to Canada leads to me to think I'd pretty well have to
start encrypting ALL my messages.
