I read it as the opposite - that safe-mail didn't cave in. All the messages are from Shrem's work account and unencrypted private messages between BTCKing and clients on Silk Road.
The ???btc@safe-mail.net patterned addresses came from the 'cash processor'.
- gwern 13y agoThat was my reading too - at no point do they seem to have access to Safe-mail.net. Even later when pointing out that the IP embedded in email headers matched BTCKing's home address... That's a rather roundabout way of doing things if you can ask for anything you please from Safe-mail.net.
- panarky 13y agoExcellent point. Re-reading it now, it looks like the emails were addressed to/from safe-mail.net but the actual collection was from the cash processor's email, not safe-mail.net.
