> Take a quick look at attachment B and you'll see that Lavabit was asked to provide the plaintext message bodies and attachments of emails sent by the user

From what I see, they were ordered to provide all messages, records etc. stored on that account and related logfiles. It does not specifically say "plaintext", so Lavabit might have provided them with the encrypted e-mails and no logs (if they had none) and still be in compliance with the warrant (IANAL!). You cannot possibly be forced to provide something you do not have, right?
