Yes, the design draft is available at http://trac.roundcube.net/wiki/PluginRepository/Encryption see also the mailinglist discussion at http://lists.roundcube.net/mail-archive/dev/2009-07/0000143.html and the ticket at http://trac.roundcube.net/ticket/1440396 i already spent a lot of hours with thinking about the implementation. the real showstopper for me was a propper integration of openpgp/mime into the mime parser from roundcube. you'll have to extend it a lot, as for encrypted mails, the decrypted part needs to be parsed again, and that's impossible with the current mime parsing class. i believe that encryption support for roundcube is a perfect project for you. it's a challenging task where few or no work has been done yet, and according to the taskmanager it's a heavily demanded feature. greetings, jonas --- 8< --- detachments --- 8< --- The following attachments have been detached and are available for viewing. http://detached.gigo.com/rc/zz/lTlPIdco/signature.asc Only click these links if you trust the sender, as well as this message. --- 8< --- detachments --- 8< ---
