	That is astonishing.  Are you really really sure of your source ?
I presume this is for UNCLASS traffic and not anything in any way
sensitive ?   Of course PGP, when properly used, doesn't allow any

may be a quite deliberate move by some in state to protect their cables
from being read by beaurocratic rivals...
