So.. your use case is what? If an AA user asked you to protect his mail
from his browser I'm sure you'd truthfully answer "no, we can't do that
but we can protect the path to your mail from your browser".. I think

see what you are telling people it can do, and your above statement
isn't consistent with that, sorry.
