A Revised Internet Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts 
directories. This draft is a work item of the 
Privacy-Enhanced Electronic Mail Working Group of the IETF.

       Title     : Privacy Enhancement for Internet Electronic Mail:  
                   Part I: Message Encryption and Authentication 
                   Procedures

This Internet-Draft defines message encryption and authentication 
procedures, in order to provide privacy-enhanced mail (PEM) services 
for electronic mail transfer in the Internet.  It is intended to 
become one member of a related set of four RFCs.  The procedures 
defined in the current document are intended to be compatible with a 
wide range of key management approaches, including both symmetric 
(secret-key) and asymmetric (public-key) approaches for encryption of 
data encrypting keys. Use of symmetric cryptography for message text 
encryption and/or integrity check computation is anticipated.  Related
Internet-Drafts specify supporting key management mechanisms based on 
the use of public-key certificates, algorithms, modes, and associated 
identifiers, and details of paper and electronic formats and 
procedures for the key management infrastructure being established in 
support of these services.
