I have found inside a System 7 box a document about receiving a certificate from RSA Inc. Does somebody know what was that about?

A means to route around repressive laws on exporting encryption, perhaps?


I'd guess it may have been for PowerTalk (Apple's ill-fated groupware/collaboration system), and that they were offering a free digital cert to sign/encrypt email.
