Hello Henrik,

I have MacGPG2-2.0.17-9, gpg 1.4.11, and PGP Desktop 10.1.0 (860)
installed on my MacBook (see particulars in signature).

PGP Desktop does *not* run under Lion. PGP Corporation (Symantec) has
indicated it will release soon a Lion compatible version.

In the meantime, I have tested PGP Viewer (same version as above PGP),
and it is possible to decrypt messages.

Drag and drop an encrypted message, enter the passphrase, and it will
show decrypted. Problem is, when you quit PGP Viewer, it fails. But you
can relaunch it, and keep on decrypting.

Not a suitable solution.

Thunderbird+Enigmail work fine.

Or wait for Lukas alpha release of his team's GPGMail.module. Their work
is outstanding.

Regards,
Charly
