I don't see a free option anywhere on their site.

The site is also heavily script/ad based. I had to disable  
adblocker just to see the illustrations/samples of their  
screenshots - not good.

I found a few places that talk about "free" hushmail, and  
relevant links, but those links take you to a hushmail page  
that nolonger exists.

Yeah.. seems ironic that a Canadian biz doesn't offer a fixed  
CDN price as an option. But that's probably because they don't  
care what country you're in. You sign up, with name, password,  
generate encryption keys, and go.

Spotify does it right. It's a fixed 9.99/mo (no additional  
taxes either) on my credit card.
