Checking PGP signature

2005-11-25 Thread Thomas Fernandez
Hello TBUDL,

I receive messages that are PGP signed, in this case from Mary. I
click on the icon to check the signature, and since I don't have her
key in my keyring, TB starts looking on the servers. then I remember
that that her key is not on any server, so I hit Cancel. I get a
pop-up that says "Invalid signature", that's normal.

I click the pop-up away and get the Microsoft window which says:

> thebat.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close.  We are sorry for 
> the inconvenience.

and buttons for [Send] and [Don't Send]. I hit Don't Send, and TB closes.

Funny thing is, with Roelof's signature, I don't get the MS window,
the search is jus stopped and I can continue working.

Using built-in support for PGP 6.5.8ckt.
Message created with The Bat! 3.62.14
under Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 2

Can anybody confirm?

Cheers,

Thomas.

My templates for the PGPNET mailing list
(http://groups.yahoo.com/group/PGPNET/)
end with

%usepgp%-
%nopgpmime%-
%signcomplete%-
%encryptcomplete%-

which enables PGP for the message, inline rather than MIME, signs
it and encrypts it. If I'm lucky. Usually it just causes TB!'s PGP
functionality to stop working until I restart TB! so I tend to use
the PGPtray current window method more often.

Of course, you sign the key only when you have verified it good, by
contacting the owner of the key... You never know who may be tweaking ;) 
Or who is relying on your signature. :)

As well as with yours. Your key seems not to be available from any public
key server.

Anyway ...

When you select to verify the key of another your PGP should
automatically scan the public key servers for that individuals key.
Once located a box should pop up with the key information and you
should hit SELECT then IMPORT. Once you have imported the key open
PGPKeys and select that key then select SIGN. If you have configured
your PGP properly is should then attempt to connect to a public key
server and update that signed key.

There should be an option in PGP that will automatically fetch PGP
keys, it's not an option inside TB iirc. I'm not sure where it is in
PGP 8 however.

I have no experience with PGP 8. With 6.5.8 I had to provide some key
servers in PGP keys. Now every time TB! encounters an unknown key it
connects to the key servers and tries to retrieve it. It didn't work
with your key. Where can I get your public key to verify your signature?

It's already there in the macro and solutions library:

http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/Library.html

This library includes a lot of macros which you can use in your
templates.

Ahh... my bad... I should have realised that, commenting just earlier that
PGP replaces lines starting with a - with "- -".  I should have just
pasted a link, but the one you referenced was a bit better as it included
some extra checking, and strips out more stuff :)

Exactly right.  Good P G P support is one reason I bought Bat.
Among other things, I use digital signatures to verify consulting
contracts with clients worldwide.

My only wish for Bat would be better integration with Gnu P G.
Such as

a) customizable locations for the Gnu EXE that don't
   depend upon PATH environment var
b) key manager
c) integrated Gnu P G distribution/setup with Bat (not an
   "internal implementation" of Gnu P G though) --
   for setup convenience of inexperienced "dummy" users who
   are totally confused by the Gnu P G web sites and public
   key systems generally -- so that they never have to even
   look at a Gnu P G website to use it

Regards.

Nono - you misunderstand me :-). When you quoted it, there were some
lines of the macro that begin with '-'. You then PGP signed the
posting. PGP prefaced *all* of those lines with an extra '- ' before
signing. That messes with how the macro works when someone copies

  template #7. The odd thing is that is the one I use, and it strips

  This one seems a little more extensive, containing catches for other
  things as well. Some of which would probably vanish if people used
  proper cut marks anyway (ie, adverts at the bottom of the emails).

  Don't take it as offence, or anything like that. Chances are, you
  were probably caught by a bad line wrap somewhere. Everybody gets
  caught by it at one time or another (check all those that paste
  their filters which contain a long event such as creating a batch

  Not in my case. I've PGP Signed my messages, which mean that the cut
  mark gets modified (although still half there). In this case, I put
  "-- ", but PGP modifies it to put "- --" which as you can see is
  different, so TB wont' cut it. Hence the need for a macro.

  Something else to note is that copying and pasting text might not
  get processed by macos, or TB internal macros (such as stripping
  signatures), unless you explicitly use the %CLIPBOARD macro.

Thank you so much. I have done this now. Trying it out in this reply.
I made one manual adjustment.

In my experience reading these lists, there must be two Enter clicks below
the 'cut' line.

I just made an experiment of replying to one Lister, who said his form worked.
(I had been manually deleting everything below the 'cut' line, when
everything traveled into my Reply text editor window. That one time, I didn't
manually delete what was below his line. And it all showed up on the
Post when I received it.

I do believe there must be two lines left empty below the (-- ). So I
put them there in this message, although the template doesn't have
them.

That's simple to do manually. :)

Again, thanks for your help.

Yes, because I forgot how to do the other templates. It has been a
long time since I've had the use of this desktop machine (it crashed
and had to be re-done, and so I forgot most of what was taught me in
November.

However, I thought, since Gavin (originator of the thread) did not
know what templates were, that would be an easy route for him, also.
It's the first use of templates that I learned.

I agree with this completely.

PMMail 2000 doesn't use PGP/MIME and yet it very nicely deals with
the PGP metadata. It does exclude the PGP stuff from the viewer as
it does with the message headers.

In the status bar of the message viewer, you'll see that the message
the message has been PGP signed and whether or not the signature is
good/bad; valid/invalid. You therefore don't have to see the PGP
stuff within the message text and you don't have to manually check
the signature either.

We wonder why other clients never incorporate some of the no brainer
features of TB!. I wonder the same about this feature of PMMail.

I am going to copy and paste here, what I am seeing below your 'cut'

live), you wrote:

It does indeed. Recently it was discussed on this list. The %- at the
end of a line tells TB to forget the  immediately following the %-.
A %- at the beginning or in the middle of a line does nothing.
Therefore Melissa's macro was looking for this:
-BEGIN PGP
SIGNED
While it ought to look for
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED

However Melissa also stated that it ought to be put in one long line,
that makes all %- macros rather useless, but it has the effect that
the macro works, because there are no faulty line breaks.

I'm not entirely sure this was copied correctly.  As you notice at [1]
it still has the PGP header line.  The above code should have stripped
it.  I think the problem has to do with where you have one of your %-.
The correct version taken right from the website looks like this:

%quotes='%SETPATTREGEXP="(?is)((\s*)?\n?-BEGIN PGP %-
SIGNED.*?\n(Hash:.*?\n)?\s*)?(.*?)(^(%-
- -*?\s*?--\s*\n|_{40,}\s*\n|%-

\z)"%REGEXPBLINDMATCH="%text"%SUBPATT="4"'

I have a feeling a little bit of a nasty word wrap might have caught
somebody somewhere. Notice how on the first line it has the %- on the
end, but the quoted one above has the %- on the second line at the
front. I'm not sure how much of an affect it'd have, but it'd be
willing to guess it breaks the match up on the PGP Header line.

Not as far as I know. I've always seen it as just "-- " and a return
after. No need for a double return above/below the 'cut'. In fact, I
use mine as below, "-- " and I've not had a problem
with it so far.

One good thing about lurking: occasionally a little manna falls from
heaven. I copied and pasted your template into Quick Templates, then I
used the backspace button to turn it into one long line.

And it works! In order to comply with a request that Leif Gregory made
of me when I first joined this list in October, 2002, I have been
manually stripping everything below the cut line (delimiter)for months
now, before replying to it on the list. What a joy to use your
expression on this reply to you and have everything gone in one click. :)

Slightly off this subject: many people are not providing a double
hyphen cut line which actually works in writing to this list. My
memory of the way Leif explained it to me is that there should be two
line spaces (two clicks of Enter) both above and below the cut line
(two hyphens plus a click of the space bar).

If the two clicks of Enter below the hyphens don't happen, the cut line
will not function. According to Leif, this model will strip everything below
the cut line in the same way your regular expression MACRO as a
template works. Except it will be the sender who has extended this
courtesy to those who are replying on TBUDL. I practiced it with him, back in
October, and he said what I was doing worked.

Incidentally, wouldn't this work for Gavin:

1) Put the message into the full reading pane with a double-click on its highlighted
line in the message list pane.

2) Click Reply or click the reply Green Arrow, usingthe quick template of your regular
expression MACRO.

3) Read the message in this window, and then click the red X to close it.

4) At that point The Bat! will ask, "Save the Message" (meaning the reply),
and the correct answer is "No," since nothing has been written--the Reply
(text editor) window has simply been used for reading, without the signature,
delightful (to me) cookies, and PGP signatures.

Or is that a bad idea?

This is where PGP/MIME signatures would come in handy :) You wouldn't
see that 'crap' as it'd be an attached signature.

It depends on the format. I am not sure you'll find Mozilla stripping
the pgp signatures from view if it is an inline signature, but you
probably wouldn't see it if it was PGP/MIME signed. There is Sylpheed
(or was it evolution... Syafril will probably know... I've completely
forgotten myself) on Linux (there is a win32 version too) that does
replace the normal PGP signatures (inline ones that is) with a
padlock.

True :)  I understand their meaning and still think it's a forest of
crap.  Even if I thought signing messages in a public forum were a
brilliant idea, I'd still think it's noise, because it's metadata, not
actual message.  It belongs in the same category as all the header
information that we care about, but don't really need to see.

Thanks for the tips.  I don't understand that template you gave me
very well, but I'm sure I won't remain ignorant for long.  (That's not
a cry for help, I'm off to the documenation now.)

BTW I'm pretty sure some other mailers (Mozilla? KMail?) hide the
PGP/GnuPG/OpenPGP metadata from view (which is all I want, not to see
it removed), and it seems like a pretty good idea for TB!

Yes, and thanks to the very helpful Marck, I managed to understand the
reasoning behind this 'error'.  It is in fact a bad choice of phrasing
by the developers, and should really say something more along the lines
of "untrusted key".  Although the key is valid (if you check with TB!
developers I'm sure they can vouch for it), you have not set a trust
level on the key.  This (badly) reports the key is invalid.  This is not
true however.  The key is valid, just not necessarily trusted.  If you
open up PGPkeys, sign the key with an unexportable signature (only you
can use it), and set it to trusted, then recheck the same message, and
you should notice the message goes away.

Marck was also kind enough to point out GnuPG (I think that was it)
actually behaves a little better, or at least gives you better
messages.  For example, actually says untrusted key, instead of invalid
key.

In Reference to your Posting on Monday, July 22 2002 at 07:43 PM PDT,

That is a poor choice of word on NAI's part. All it means is that you
haven't assigned it a level of trust yet, and that there is no signature
on that Public Key that you trust. If you sign that Public Key with a
non-exportable signature, the "Invalid" status will change to "Valid".

I couldn't find your Key on any of the KeyServers I visited. I did notice
that your word wrapping was a little funky, and I think the reason is that
you have engaged PGP's word wrapping... PGP's Options/Email. TB has a
wonderful WYSIWYG Editor... no behind the scenes wrapping taking place, so
you can literally disengage PGP's wrapping. That way, what you type will
get signed... and sent exactly as you see it. :o)

(I hope this email didn't get posted twice.  I sent the first copy
before I had registered myself.  I don't think it was distributed.)

I'm not a heavy user of pgp so this problem may well be do to
something I'm not doing right.  Until now, I have only encrypted and
decrypted messages.

At any rate, I received the notice of the new version of TheBat (v
1.61) and happened to notice that there was a pgp signature
associated
with the email.  Furthermore, there was a URL to RitLab's public
encryption key (PGP key is available at
https://support.ritlabs.com/pgpkeys/office.txt).  So I grabbed the
public key and imported it to my pgp keyring.  I then asked TheBat to
verify the signature of the 1.61 announcement email.  Pgp displayed a
message saying that the key was invalid.

Has anyone else done this?  Does it work correctly for you?  I tried
sending an email to myself using a pgp signature and it worked fine
(nice to know I'm still me).  I will put a signature around this
email
(my public key is available at pgpkeys.mit.edu, among other places.

Thanks for any clarification or illumination on this subject,

Yes, it is in the Plugin. My last message was signed via the Plugin, and
my delimiter isn't working. OTOH, if I use GnuPGShell, or WinPT or
PGPTray, then the delimiter is recognised. So the Plugin must be stripping
that trailing space as you mention.

I can. My dash-escaped sig has the trailing space removed when it is
escaped. Yours does not. I'm going to sign this with PGP-Tray to see
if it's that. I've used both GPG and PGP6.5.8 with plug-ins. The only

Yes, I've noted that when you hit the reply button on Marck's messages,
the delimiter is ignored for some reason. It's not just Marck's messages
though, as Dierk's messages and many others act the same way... where the
delimiter is ignored when dash-escaped by PGP.

I cannot see a pattern yet, but it may have something to do with the PGP
version one has... although I don't see how that should matter.

I don't know why, but you seem to make something right. I've also
already noticed the PGP-delimiter is used meanwhile, but, it's
harm, not all the time. YOUR mails I can reply to and the ugly
PGP-parts are cutted of. Many other mails that came over the list too
(I haven't tested all yet), but I got a PM from "Marck D. Pearlstone",
where "the trick" didn't work :-( The only difference (ignoring the
difference in the text *g*) I could see was the additional sig the
list attaches. I've copy Marcs mail to a temp folder, took of the
regexp in my reply-template, edited the mail and added originally the
sig from the list (-- \n ... "Archives   : "-stuff) ... it
didn't work out for me ... SO WHAT's the difference? I do the hell not
know why it's one/many time working and another time not :-(

Wow. I just took the RegEx out of my reply template, and you're right,
TB does recognise the PGP escaped sig delimiter now. :-) When was that

No. You have to use a RegEx to cut off the sig, if it is different
from the basic dash-dash-space-enter. TB does *not* recognise
dash-space-dash-dash-space-enter as a sig delimiter.

At first glance it would appear not. The signature delimiter is "hyphen
hyphen space", and even though a PGP signature will dash escape that text,
The Bat! will still recognize the delimiter.

In your case however, it does not seem to which makes me think that you
perhaps did not include the space after the two hyphens. That delimiter
has to be on a line of it's own, but I am not sure with TB! if you have to
hit the enter key after the space. I will PGP sign this, and when
received, simply hit the Reply button and everything *below* the delimiter
should be gone, including the PGP stuff. ;o)

I see what you're saying but what is written on the web page is still
misleading. If a TB! user says that he/she wishes to decrypt a message,
what do you think they mean, and what would you tell them to do? I'd tell
them to use the PGP decrypt command and explain how it works, assuming
that they wish to decrypt *and* read the message.

If they ask how to verify a signature, I'd tell them to use the "check PGP
signature" command and add that the command works with encrypted and
signed messages as well. However, for encrypted messages an unencrypted
copy isn't created in order to simply verify the signature. I don't quite
know if someone would wish to only verify the signature of an encrypted
message and not decrypt and read it as well.

This is why PGP so clearly makes their command, decrypt and verify.
There's no verification only command.

But what TB! does when it checks a signature on a PGP encrypted message is
exactly as advertised. The message must first be decrypted to obtain the
signature... the verification information is presented in the PGPLog, but
the message remains in it's encrypted state. Therefore:

"To decrypt an encrypted e-mail message from The Bat!, use "Check  PGP

If he wants to do both... check the signature *and* decrypt the message,
then he must use Tools/PGP/PGP Decrypt. Choosing only Tools/PGP/PGP Check
Signature will do exactly that, but even to do that, PGP must use your
Private Key to decrypt the message to get at the signature, which is why
it asks for your Passphrase. The reason it didn't leave a decrypted copy
as well is because that was not asked for. No? Yes?

Presently Tools/PGP/Check PGP Signature doesn't decrypt messages for me.
Can others confirm this? If so, then Ritlabs need to correct their page

Hi A,

wrote the following in regards to "Check PGP signature":

I also use PGPtray to decrypt so as *not* to have decrypted messages
hanging around. I know when I used to use Pegasus and I decrypted a
message it would show the message in a viewer, similar to PGPtray and
when the message was closed, it remained encrypted. It didn't produce
another *decrypted* message. Just one of the things I would like to
see in TB!

Hi Allie,

It has to be said that the recent suggestion of a Read filter which
picks up "(pgp decrypted)" in the subject of a read message and does a
filter action delete does the job beautifully. No double delete needed
since a filter action delete never "touches the sides on the way
down".

For me it makes complete and final sense of the plug-in.

Mind you, you have to set up a filter for each folder in which
decrypted messages might appear, but that's just a quick copy and
fudge of the original filter.

To decrypt an encrypted message you need to use the decrypt command. Go to
the menus and choose Tools/PGP/PGP decrypt. The password prompt should
appear. Type in your password and hit .

The other way to get at the pgp decrypt command is by right clicking on
the message and go to Specials/PGP decrypt or simply hit Shift-Ctrl-D.

Yes.

When TB! decrypts a message, it creates a decrypted copy and adds it to
the message list. The decrypted message is indicated by "(PGP decrypted)"
being appended to the subject header.

aen> But when I click on check pgp signature,

Checking a signature is really checking the signature in my message here.
This command isn't what you use to decrypt encrypted messages.

Check PGP signature

2001-04-29 Thread ad

Hi,

I've already post that problem a while but as I got no answer and saw a
new faq, here it is again :

so on pgp help page i found :

"To decrypt an encrypted e-mail message from The Bat!, use "Check PGP
signature" command from the Tools menu. If the message is signed, PGP
automatically checks its signature validity. Note that the message is
NOT stored so you need to decrypt it this way each time you read the
message."

But when I click on check pgp signature, It asks for my passphrase and
... nothing !
So i'd like to know what happens to you, I hoped a window opened with
my message decrypted or something like that.

thanks for help

Another is to also carefully check if other applications or system

Re: PGP signature verification: always get "invalid signature format"

And now I want to post my solution for the benefit of anyone else who
runs across it:

I erased my hard drive a month or so ago; it's something I do
periodically to make Windows loose some weight (usually 50% if it's a
six-months old installation. I try out a lot of software).

After I did this, of course, I re-installed my apps (Including
TheBat!) and filled in the mail base from another copy.

When I set up the bat I did point it, as always, to my proper keyrings
and randseed file.

Alas, I forgot to check the box that indicates that I'm using version
6. SO, it was trying to use the version 6 keyrings according to the
"internal" method. Neither the public nor the private keyring
contained anything it could recognize---and all signatures came up as
invalid.

Moral of the story: check all your settings carefully when you
discover a "bug!"

PGP signature verification: always get "invalid signature format"

2000-10-24 Thread Tony A. T. Mendina

This kind of think came up this time last year, and though the
discussion on how to transliterate Russian names was interesting, I
couldn't find a solution in the archives. So here I am.

Whenever I try to validate a signature using The Bat!, the PGP
signature validation log pops up and tells me that the signature is
invalid, and the signer is "unknown," because of "(unknown signature
format)".

I assume I've got something set up wrong, but I've tried pgp 5.5, 6.5.8,
no pgp installed, and versions of The Bat! 1.42 thru 1.47. Reboots
don't help. Both the Bat! PGP plugin dlls and the pgp dlls that come
with 6.5.8 are in the windows/system directory, which is of course in
the system path. The bat's pgp plugin dlls are also found in The Bat's
program directory.

Any suggestions? Is there something obvious I've missed?

Thanks,
Tony

Filtering HASH and VERSION in PGP-Signature

2000-07-22 Thread Alexander Schaubeck

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hello !

I have seen some PGP signed mails in which the lines "HASH:" and
"Version:" were missing. They were send using TB.
I was searching for an option which automatically deletes the
"Version" line, but I can't find anything.
(The sender of the mails didn't answer on my question, if he
deletes the lines manually or automatically :-((

Is there any option in TB ?? Has anybody a hint for me ;-)) ?

Thanks,
Alex.
