i did notice that, but if they are encrypted how come i can see them? ive never needed encryption before and asked since i have a need now.
It's not encrypted. It's merely a message digest and digital signature. It is merely a means to show that the message itself was not altered in-transit and a method to verify that the message was indeed sent by the person you're emailing.
thats fine but i dont only send emails to linux users, as odd as that sounds, i would assume thier clients have to have the software as well to decrypt the email? actually im the only one on my address that uses linux, (and im not on my address list) so is it cross-platform compaitible? also does it work with webmail aka squirrelmail?
GnuPG does have ongoing ports to Win32 and OS X if I remember correctly. Thunderbird is cross-platform, though I think EnigMail only works on GNU/Linux.
