I get a lot of E-mails...
I don't know how I can reasonably discuss a private E-mail based on non-disclosable images here.
What I can say is that the previous list is an extract (subset) of the nomenclator part of one diplomatic cipher.
Like all diplomatic ciphers that I have seen, this one has two properties:
1) It increases the number of different characters with respect to the plaintext
2) It will flatten the character distribution (to some extent) by allowing several encodings of the most frequent plaintext characters (vowels).
Both are contrary to what we see in the Voynich MS, as I have already said many times.
You have examples of encrypted texts using diplomatic ciphers, so it is just a matter of sitting down and doing the entropy calculation. That should be more useful than just philosophising about it.
