My investigations so far: <http://macgpg.sourceforge.net/> is the website to start at. GnuPG itself seems to install fine. The FAQ also recommends installing the IDEA module (I'm not clear what that is, and I haven't done so), GPGKeys, (which seems to have been superseded by GPG Keychain Access, which I've installed) and GPGDropThing (also installed). I also installed GPGServices (link on the above page), although GPGDropThing also installs some Services and I'm not sure you need both. Initial playing about suggests that it should be fairly straightforward to use, though I don't have a guinea-pig to actually send an encrypted message to at the moment! -- TimH PowerMail 5.5.2 (build 4475) | OS X 10.4.8 | PowerBook FW/500 | 1GB RAM
