I think that the proposed Tor2mail gateway is ok like it has been designed.

It only speak SMTP/TLS and only accept to forward email that are
encrypted with OpenPGP (not even saving it into the mail server queue if
it's in clear text).

I don't think it's the goal of a piece of software like this to process
email body by apply security to the content of the message.

It's goal is to enable internet<->darknet encrypted email exchange,
strictly over SMTP/TLS connections for inbound and outbound. .

We probably would need another, different piece of software, to provide
easy "encryption gateways" .
