We do have some additional security being used today, some of which could be refined and adopted. Between you, Rob, and I we have a substancial user base that gives us the power to create positive change.
Synchronet and Mystic support direct BINKP over SSL natively which is a good start to securing transmission. At one point I had a opportunistic SSL version of BinkP as well.
Of course SSL doesn't stop routed netmail from being read by a SysOp in the middle though, so in this case Mystic does AES-256 encrypted netmail if its setup with an encryption key for the address being netmailed.
