Won't work! You can always embed an encrypted message in what 'looks'
like plaintext.
So people can write special software that gets their message rejected
by an entropy filter. This is a disadvantage? It looks like an
irrelevancy to me.
Seems to me that a quite reasonable condition of use of a remailer is
that what is passed isn't human readable.
