From the article the Q team posted in #3620:

Security expert Mikko Hypponen, at F-Secure, said his understanding was that the vulnerability could in theory be used to decrypt a cache of encrypted emails sent in the past, if an attacker had access to such data.

Is the Q team telling the derps and their once-thought-safe encrypted emails were not safe from being decrypted?

Ohh that’s exactly how I read both the post and the article. I might rub my hands together with anticipation and a bit of an evil mwahahahaha!
