Thawte offered PGP support so poorly that it was irrelevant. And they
never had any commercial PGP services.
See the thread on the UK-Crypto list ~ January 2000 with the subject of
"Food for Thawte" if you really want to know why Thawte's PGP program is
worthless.
Note that this is probably moot now that Verisign has bought them.
