[p2p-research] P2P Email

[marc fawzi]

Email (this very transmission) can be picked up by anyone (before it
gets to you) ... What security? If one needs security they have to
encrypt.

But security of each PC that is running a P2P client is always an
issue, and key to that is "close sourcing" the transport protocol
stack like Skype did.
