Thanks to Joel and Steve for suggesting this, but my problem is that
these folks already are happily using whatever MS-thingie is in
Outlook, and are not excited to try to figure out PGP/GPG and give up
their existing practice just for my benefit.  So I'm hoping there's
some linux-y solution to encrypting and decrypting messages that will
be readable (writeable) by Outlook w/o any plugins.

But the MS thing is probably proprietary and closed and I'm probably
dreaming. <sigh>
