RE: Security F2F

[Hatem ElSebaaly <hatem@ipnetsolutions.com>]

Nick,

There are no specs that talk about this.
What I am suggesting is to validate the case where the TRP can transport 
an S/MIME or PGP/MIME payload.
The TRP will look at the payload as if it was BLOB and does
not do anything with it. 

Basically, the mime/demiming is happening at the app level.

I do not believe that there will be any TRP level security spec ready
in time for the next POC. Hopefully, this issue will be addressed soon.
Maryann could elaborate more.


Thanks
Hatem
