Good point, I actually witnessed this first hand with a trap flood which 
took a long time to nail down ... I thought there was encryption support 
of some kind in v3.

BTW, does the net-smtp lib allow you to create traps?  Ive noticed with 
php5 stream_socket_server() you can receive them but there is no interface 
for snmptrap ... does anyone write apps that send them?  Im guessing its 
trivial ...
