This thread should really be called "secure email" not "secure
network" since the poster really only commented on email and the
latter has all sorts of other implications.

The more I learn about secure email the more I'm convinced we're going
to have to try it a while before we can wring the bugs out.  One can
make a laundry list of features one might want, but I don't think
there's a good basis for doing a cost/benefit tradeoff on the various
alternatives. Until we've had some pilot systems fielded and get to
'kick the tires' for a while, the technical community isn't going to
have the experience needed to make good engineering decisions.
