What other package would you suggest that does the same functionality then
insteard? I specifically was interested in this one because of the mime
encoding of the signature/encryption functionality.

I object to this ITP. The software in question is both trivial and
non-free. Those features which are not a subset of mime-construct
(<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>) are either irrelevant to Debian
systems (direct SMTP-based mailing) or a bad idea (encouraging users to
store pgp passphrases on disk). With

I've already spoken to the upstream author, and he does not see mwilling to
convert to a DFSG license. Probably the only thing I can do is to make it
suitable for the non-free section for the time being. Can you indicate to me

You'd better keep in touch with upstream author and try to con
OK, let me see if I can address all the comments I've received so far.
1. Description too long.
OK, I will change it to a shorter one, once I work out how to do that
with an ITP.
2. Various questions along the line of "What does email do that a
certain shell sequence doesn't".
