Ideally, you could administrate your MS from anywhere, without needing your private key. This would be ideal for systems like SyndicateMail, where the whole point is where you don't need to do key management.

Went with using OpenID authentication instead, as well as encrypting private keys and hosting them on the MS until needed.
