Hello Victor, On Tue, 10 Dec 2002, at 05:48:05 GMT -0500 (12/10/2002, 4:48 AM -0500 GMT here), you wrote in [EMAIL PROTECTED]">mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED]: VBG If PGP 8 is out of the question then where should I begin to VBG look for such services? What exactly is a service like that VBG called? As Melissa stated in mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP 8 is not out of the question, but you do have alternatives. You will have a bit of a learning curve to learn PGP or GPG which ever you choose. I would suggest joining PGP-Basics which is a mail list on Yahoo at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/PGP-Basics/. Good for learning whether you start with PGP or GPG. I started with GPGshell which is a front end, and GPG. GPG is open source. If your interested you can download GPG from the following address: ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/binary/gnupg-w32cli-1.2.1-1.zip ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/binary/gnupg-w32cli-1.2.1-1.zip.sig If your interested in GPGshell, you can download and find install instructions for both GPG and GPGshell at http://www.jumaros.de/rsoft/gpgshell.html.

SOT: LDAP Vs POP3 What about PGP on XP?
Hello tbudl, What is the difference between LDAP Vs POP3? and why would you want to sign your messages with PGP? I heard The Bat! doesn't use PGP 8 and heard PGP 8 is the only compatible app to work with XP... If I wanted to use PGP I guess I would be out of luck huh? Just curious :) -- Best regards, Victor B.

Hallo Victor, On Mon, 9 Dec 2002 06:38:52 -0500GMT (9-12-02, 12:38 +0100GMT, where I live), you wrote: VBG What is the difference between LDAP Vs POP3? LDAP stands for Lightweight Directory Access Protocol. Many current email clients use some form of LDAP database to look up email addresses. Internic and Infospace are two examples of big public look-up services built with LDAP. POP3 is short for Post Office Protocol (version 3). This is the type of communication your computer uses when it sends and receives e-mail over the Internet. POP3 is a client/server protocol in which e-mail is received and held for you by your Internet service provider. So POP3 is a server where you collect your e-mail and LDAP is a server for e-mail addresses. Probably you meant the the difference between POP3 and IMAP, so that takes us to: IMAP stands for Internet Message Access Protocol. It is a method of accessing electronic mail or bulletin board messages that are kept on a (possibly shared) mail server. In other words, it permits a client email program to access remote message stores as if they were local. For example, email stored on an IMAP server can be manipulated from a desktop computer at home, a workstation at the office, and a notebook computer while traveling, without the need to transfer messages or files back and forth between these computers. So the difference between IMAP and POP3 is that with POP3 you do your message processing on your client and with IMAP it's managed around your server. That makes IMAP more suited to fast (permanent) internet connections and LANs, where POP3 is more suited to dial-up connections. VBG and why would you want to sign your messages with PGP? For the same reason that you put your signature under a typed letter, to prove it's yours. VBG I heard The Bat! doesn't use PGP 8 and heard PGP 8 is the only VBG compatible app to work with XP... Dunno. -- Groetjes, Roelof Current version is 1.61 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Perfect, as I do not think anyone could probably have explained it any better :) I would like to prove with a signature like PGP that it is me that sends out broadcast to my members... How do I implement such a feature? If PGP 8 is out of the question then where should I begin to look for such services? What exactly is a service like that called?

Hello Melissa! On Tuesday, December 10, 2002 at 7:29:56 PM you wrote: You also asked why some of us sign all our messages with PGP. I could give you an explanation of my *several* reasons, but it would be a bit too far off-topic for TBUDL. If you wish to take that to TBOT or private email, I'll be happy to continue the discussion. Let me add that usually all my messages are PGP signed, until recently my TB mailing list ones, too. As several members complained about it once too often I decided not to make the moderator's life to hard by inserting the %NOUSEPGP into my TB templates. -- Dierk Haasis The Bat 1.62 Christmas Edition on Windows XP 5.1 2600Service Pack 1 Everybody loves a winner, but when you lose, you lose alone.
