There are what appear to me on quick inspection to be serious flaws in =
the this software. For example, it uses RSA without proper padding. The =
website says "E-mail is encrypted using the RSA public-key cryptosystem =
thus eliminating security risks from symmetric ciphers." Any security =
expert will tell you that this raises immediate red flags. (And =
inspection of the code strongly suggests that it's as bad as it sounds.)
