I think most people respond to their mails pretty much as they come in. I'd add that in corporate settings a norm of near immediate response has developed. I've set my timeout at 9999sec -- mutt throws in an error if I add a digit. I don't use OSX, but can you comment on how easy key exchange is nowadays? I have to admit that I have it set up and ready to roll, but pretty much no one I know is willing to take the plunge.

>I think most people respond to their mails pretty much as they come in Maybe when at work, but at home most people (Especially of the older generation) seem to check their email a few times a day. Corporate users should never be using webmail on their work computer...If they're MS Exchange based, they should be using Outlook and their exchange policy should allow (and prefer) S/MIME. There are a variety of plugins for Outlook that support GPG and S/MIME is already signed and encrypted. Pubkey's should always be make available through the existing online PKI services. I personally send all my keys through pgp.mit.edu to be mirrored world-wide. Key-exchange (For High to Ultimate trust scenarios) is simple and easy. Send someone your pubkey by signing it with their pubkey and email it in a signed email (with signed attachments) to them. Have them do the reverse.
