   Right, so that reduces the estimate a bit.  And if you factor in the keys     
   that are expired or revoked, the number may be significantly less.

   I'v read about S/MIME type encryption methods that use certificates. And     
   these certificates are created and registered with an "authority". When I     
   was looking for something to use with MS Outlook for business, I only came     
   across solutions that required payment.   
      
   Maybe big-business environments use the above solution.   
      
   But PGP management is much simpler and gives total angency to the user.   
      
   I am a little surprised pgp is not more ubiquitous as it *should* be.   
      
   What type of business is/was your involvement?
