Re:Schleuder: A GPG-enabled mailinglist with remailing-capab... by o- on Wednesday July 26, 2017 @03:06AM (#14854165)
In theory there are alternatives where you do not need to trust the server. The keyword is proxy re-encryption (e.g. [SELS]).

On the other hand schleuder exists today and can be used by normal people (for example without having a custom private key per list, as you need afaik for [SELS]).

The other often overlooked fact about schleuder is that it's also a re-mailer. You can use it in a one-to-many setting, where the external party does only know the cryptographic key and email address of the list and a group of people can communicate with this person using schleuder as the proxy. This is a great alternative to shared mailboxes and a feature that is probably impossible with proxy encryption.
