Migrate? That data is in my mail archive. While it would be possible for
me to write a program to scan the mail file for pgp blockes, check which
pgp version is used, decrypt the data, re-encrypt it with a modern gpg
version and replace that textblock, it would still lose information
about dates
Lucky for me I never use that version, as I never respected the
copyright of the RSA and IDEA algorithms (questionable in Europe anyway).
Patents, not copyrights.
