hey, i was wondering if anyone knew of a patch or something that allows
users to read/write encrypted mboxes.  we have a network home directory
at work and it is rather unsecure.  i don't want people easily reading my

that allow for this.  has this already been done?

Can't you just set the ownership of your files to 600?
