Hi, I recently installed on pgp4win on my windows machine to encyrpt and decrypt my emails. Since Im new to this stuff I have a couple of questions:
1) Why dont services like Gmail understand PGP encrypted messages and decrypt them? Has this got something to do with export regulations on encyrption software? 2) If i send a PGP encrypted message to the mailing list with my public key in the -----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK----- -----END PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK----- blocks is it ok? Will a user using gmail/yahoomail be able to read my messages? If yes then how does it happen? Does the mailing list server do the decryption? If yes, does that mean I receive clear text mails even though someone wanted to send an encrypted message? My main reason for this newly accquired paranoia about email privacy is that I dont want my email admin to be reading my mails, even if they are to the mailing list. Is PGP the right thing for this? One more thing? Is it possible to encrypt the subject also? -- Puneet http://sahyog.blogspot.com/ Latest Post: javac -g _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- [email protected] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/
