973 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
974
975 The gateway supports end-to-end encryption through the Gateway Relayed Encryption
976 specification. This works by indicating to client how to format and encrypt the message
977 (in technical terms, it's by telling it to use MIME and OpenPGP) before sending it to the
978 gateway. This only works with clients implementing this specification.
