Yes that has to work but... What I want to read up on and test is encrypted (secure) communications between the (2) major cell phone types and whatever client on a gentoo workstation. The goal is good security, that is reasonable to setup and manage and allows folks to use any of those 3 devices to exchange encrypted mail. Suppose I had a friend that has an ios phone. What page do I send him to to encrypt his emails? What will work with thunderbird, sylpheed, etc. Some discussion, url links that I can refer others to and then recommendations. > If I understood correctly, interoperability should be easy because > mostly it comes down to IMAP/SMTP/POP3 and support for those protocols > is pretty good across lots of applications. But maybe I got it wrong? What I want to do is find documents that at least provide an overview of which specific apps to put on a cell phone (android or ios) some example configs and then a few docs on the gentoo side. Free or do you buys those apps from a vendor on the cell phones? Which ones are better, i.e. more trusted or have different algos for encryptions (bit-lenght etc). May, I just need to find a forum where this is routinely discuss to see what's new, what's not secure, what may be prohibited by whom, etc etc. OK? James
