One more thought.. :)

If you want to be sure of privacy you could UUEncode (or similar) and the recipient could UUDecode the message when they get it.

I think it is against the rules in Fidonet to send encrypted mail. Some nodes that accept encrypted mail fly the ENC (or similar) flag. It's not something I would be concerned about myself (as long as the law doesn't get involved). Mail from here gets sent towards it's destination, encrypted or not. There is no rule in fsxNet about mail being encrypted or not.
