Aha! As I thought. % ... % is how the plugin handles the encryption and signing of messages with % eudora. Yeah. % % That would explain why when I send them signed+encrypted email they can % only open it what they call a secure viewer which is a seperate window Ahhh... % from eudora. The pgpfreeware plugin is expecting a two-step process and my % emails are signed+encrypted in one-step. Therefore they can't read my % emails directly within eudora. Yeah. And that explains why their mails are goofy, too. % % So which method is the standard signing and encrypting in one-step or % two-steps? Well, I don't know what one considers "standard", but I'd say the mutt way is the Right Way ;-) I've also followed the gnupg list a bit and it seems that a single sign-and-encrypt process is a more common method, though there is some discussion of doing multiple steps for signing and encryption (in fact, s+e+s or e+s+e to get around some security problems inherent in public-key encryption). % % Thanks for your help, Sure thing! % % jbw HAND :-D -- David T-G * It's easier to fight for one's principles (play) [EMAIL PROTECTED] * than to live up to them. -- fortune cookie (work) [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.justpickone.org/davidtg/ Shpx gur Pbzzhavpngvbaf Qrprapl Npg!
