I don't think disk encryption preserves forward secrecy, and the issue
becomes the one I outlined in my last message: even if _you_ do it
correctly, how can you be sure that your correspondents "get it" and do
it correctly as well....

So I still contend that the only way to preserve forward secrecy without
too many gaping holes that you can't control is to never log any OTR
conversation in any way.
