Two main new features I was thinking about are:
1. PGP support
2. Client-less email encryption
Hi Martijn
I vote for number one if that means OpenPGP support (using GnuPG and its
libraries for example)
We (a german non-profit-organisation) are currently looking for a
Free/Open Source eMail encryption solution (ca. 300 email users). So far
I have found GEAM (deep in the GnuPG sources, only OpenPGP, no S/MIME)
and got it running but I am concerned that it seems it is not actively
developed or even maintained anymore. And it does not support S/MIME.
And I have not tested it in a "production environment"...
Since most of our communication partners use OpenPGP and some use
S/MIME, I decided to vote for OpenPGP support in Djigzo
It seems the field of free/open source eMail security gateways is
relative small compared to client side encryption solutions. On the
other hand there are plenty of commercial gateway solutions.
So keep up the good work!

I'm sorry for the late reply.

The one problem I see with PGP support is that PGP has support for
PGP/MIME and PGP inline. PGP inline is not very scalable because the
gateway has to scan the complete message to see if there are any
---BEGIN PGP... headers. With S/MIME and PGP/MIME the header tells you
whether the message is signed and/or encrypted. Some clients only
support PGP inline whereas some clients only support PGP/MIME.
Do you require both PGP inline and PGP/MIME?

I guess there aren't a log of open source implementations because it
requires a lot of work
