Seems to me what they are actually saying is that automatic decryption of incoming messages, and the handling thereof is the issue... nothing to do with transmitting / decrypting / reading encrypted messages in a "safe" environment.

I suspect the automaton possible with something like JavaScript being the culprit, and the email client's "features" bring far to cooperative... possibly linked with storing plain text after initial (and automatic) decryption of incoming messages.
