	While fiddling around with S/MIME and
	mailto:, it struck me that it would be
	nice to allow browsers to invoke the
	mail client to generate a signed and/or
	encrypted mail message (with appropriate
	warnings to the user).  This would be
	very useful for bill payment and delivery
	and do not force the browsers to create
	a SSL connection with the server.

	I thought of extending mailto: to do the
	same, and have already received objections
	on that..:).  I guess we can always create
	a new url for the same..

	Anyway, this message is to find out if
	anyone else is interested in this and
	what would be the best way to solve it.

	cheers-
