Here's a way that makes the most sense (I think). When you send an e-mail, it leaves your machine and passes through X number of mail servers along the way. It could be just a couple, or it could be five or six. At any point when your message passes through a mail server, an unscrupulous mail admin could be reading your e-mail. While you may be saying nothing of importance, the point is, that it invades your privacy. Sending unencrypted e-mail is like sending a postcard, where the mailperson could be reading it as he/she walks down the street and giggling over the wish you were here message from your mom. Contrast that with encrypting which is akin to sending the letter sealed in an envelope. Not exactly the same but close enough to make the point. It's not that people have something to hide (or most of us don't), it's that you should have the assurance, peace-of-mind, and the right to privacy. -- Leif (TB list moderator and fellow end user).

Hence my confusion over your question. I honestly can't think of a situation where five people would share a key. I can see in a corporate situation where five people might be on a corporate keyring, but each with their own sub-key. The idea behind PGP being that each person is uniquely identifiable and verifiable. V We are talking about different things. You're talking about V multiple recipients for one message, which indeed works as you V described. I am talking about encrypting multiple times, with the V base for the new iteration being the ciphertext produced by the V previous one. A message/file encrypted using this procedure could V not be decrypted by simply using any one of the recipients' private V keys. Yes, if you wanted to layer encryption, you could recursively feed the output of one crypto to the next. Again, why?

This is the case for at least some, but not all messages. For instance, the digests from [EMAIL PROTECTED] are OK. Edit windows (as opposed to View windows) are OK as well.

It doesn't have a checkmark because Sign complete text does a real-time *text* signature. Sign when complete will pay additional attention to the PGP/MIME settings (which default to Auto). Text signed messages have no Signed headers and therefore no checkmark. A message signed when complete with PGP/MIME set to On will get a proper PGP/MIME signature and will have a check mark in the message list. A message signed when complete with PGP/MIME set to Off will get a text signature instead of a MIME one and have no check mark. A message signed when complete with PGP/MIME set to Auto will get a text signature instead of a MIME one and have no check mark *sometimes*. The rules for that last one are that PGP/MIME is used (and a checkmark seen in the message list) ... 1) If there are 8 bit characters in the message 2) If any lines end with a space (like the cut mark line) 3) If any lines start with 'from' otherwise, if none of the above conditions are met, the message will be signed with a text signature and will get no checkmark. -- Cheers -- .\\arck D Pearlstone -- List moderator TB! v2.01 on Windows XP 5.1.2600 Service Pack 1 pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature Current version is 2.01 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

PK I use MicroEd Editor. For some time now (including Allie's and PK Mark's) Emails shows a TAB, and an attachment called *Part.txt* PK which is probably created by PGP. Yes. When we PGP/MIME sign messages as we do, any text appended by the list server will be appended as an attachment. If it's added as part of the message body, it would break the PGP/MIME signature. PK I did not remember having that with older versions of BAT PK (1.5-1.6x), That's right. Those versions don't support PGP/MIME. What you should see are two attachments. One for the list footer and the other for the PGP/MIME signature. PK those had at the end of the E-mailthe same text, sometimes stripped PK by the special sig-delimiter other times not. This was when we used in-line signatures which are different from PGP/MIME. PGP/MIME avoids including the digital signature in the message body. This makes it cleaner and more presentable. PGP/MIME also allows you to sign/encrypt attachments that you may wish to send with the text. The message and attachment are therefore signed as a single package. -- -= allie_M =- | List Moderator PGPKeys: http://www.ac-martin.com/pgpkeys.html _ Current version is 2.01 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

TB! has always provided good support for PGP in the interest of secure e-mailing as a primary part of its development path. For professional and even private e-mailing, I strongly agree with and endorse this, so discussing this would certainly be on-topic, IMO. How do you prove to others that e-mail is in fact from you or that e-mail you sent hasn't been altered after you signed it? How do you go about private or sensitive correspondence with others through e-mail. You may use alternative means when doing that sort of correspondence since your current approach to e-mail isn't secure. However, using PGP could make these things possible with very good security. A common reason is that you'd be the only one among your correspondents using it. This was and is no longer the case for me since speaking with some of those I exchange sensitive information by e-mail with. For me, it's been one of those tools that I didn't think I'd need (I really started using it about a year after I started using TB! and I remember reluctantly doing so at that) and now that I use it, I can't do without it. :) JM so if possible when these discussions turn to PGP issues, is there JM anyway that we could get everyone to put PGP in the subject line?

Not many people used PGP, meaning they could not verify my signature, but at least it was there. At the time, I had frequent problems getting valid signatures with Eudora. As a result, I started looking around and found TB!. While I switched initially because I wanted (and needed) better PGP support, I've since found that it's also a much better program overall. - -- Richard H.

TM Also an other subkey which expires never added to your key on October 12. TM But why my log file, and also in the Keylist, shows that your Key is expired TM in general?

JM Thanks, Marck (and Allie)! I assume it's new in v2.01? Digital signing has been a long time supported feature in TB. TB 2 adds the following: 1) The flagging of MIME signed messages in the message list. V1 would flag S/MIME signed messages. V2 now knows about PGP/MIME too. 2) Better integrated support with a (?) icon in the message preview (and folder) header for signature checking. 3) PGP/MIME support 4) PGP v7 and v8 support and dispensing with the need to use plug-ins for the job. -- Cheers -- .\\arck D Pearlstone -- List moderator TB! v2.01 on Windows XP 5.1.2600 Service Pack 1 pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature Current version is 2.01 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
