If I may add my 2 cents, encrypting regular non-sensitive mail does not
appear pointless to me.

For one thing it ensures that GPG mail setups are properly configured
all the time and ready when needed for critical data.

It also gives the intelligence agencies something bogus to chew on; let
them waste resources deciphering cat pictures.

Lastly, the current poor adoption rate of encryption makes every GPG'd
mail stick out.  Encrypting non-sensitive data lessens that effect.
