-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I was wondering if anyone knew of a way, perhaps using /etc/aliases, so that all incoming mail addressed to my username (hrickards) is encrypted with *my* public key, so that when I read it only I can read it using *my* private key. If the mail was signed or encrypted beforehand, it could then be decrypted with my private key as usual.
e.g: [email protected] sends email to [email protected]. The email is encrypted with [email protected]'s public key. Postfix encrypts this email *again* with [email protected]'s public key, and put's it in [email protected]'s inbox. Thunderbird with EnigMail (my mail client) downloads the message and decrypts it with my private key. The message then looks as it was when it was sent. Thunderbird then decrypts the message again with my private key, leaving me with the plain text. However, if the message was not signed in the first place, it would look like this: [email protected] sends email to [email protected] The email isn't encrypted. Postfix encrypts this email with [email protected]'s public key, and puts it in [email protected]'s inbox. Thunderbird downloads the message and decrypts it with my private key, leaving me with the plain text. Sorry if I wasn't very clear.
