subject: ENC user flag

Greetings Michiel!

 AL>>> The ENC user flag indicates that the node supports incoming
 AL>>> encrypted mail. It is presently authorized in the Zone 2
 AL>>> nodelist.

 RW>> As the question implys; there is nothing in the nodelist to indicate
 RW>> that U,ENC is a viable flag

 MvdV> The ENC user flag is documented in par 6.2 in FTS-5003.

 MvdV> http://ftsc.org/docs/fts-5001.005

Thanks, but that doesn't answer the question of; why isn't the flag
implemented in an all zones nodelist? If it's good for the goose, why not
the gander?

 MvdV>   ENC    This node accepts inbound encrypted mail and will route it
 MvdV>          like other mail

 RW>> Which should be an on-topic discussion for this echo,

 MvdV> Yes, it is on-topic.

 MvdV> Does that answer your question?

Yes, now onto the only on-topic discussion for the echo.

Basically, I don't see a need for separate documentation when it can all
be had in one without having to go to any one document that only the uber
*Cs use in their nodelist compilation.

    Have a day!
