My Question to the group: is there some sort of plug-in for Outlook (F/OSS
preferred) users that provides similar integration. I've looked at PGP but
the external user (the sender) doesn't want to spend that much $$$ on it, so
I'm back to square one. I told them to run Linux too - but I was laughed at
(idiots).
Any help or suggestions are welcome :)
I had a requirement at work about 18 months ago for one of my users to
be able to send/receive pgp encrypted files (from a windows desktop). I
ended installing windows privacy tray (google currently gives this link
for the project http://www.stud.uni-hannover.de/~twoaday/winpt.html)
which did the job well enough. It's basically a gui calling gpg
underneath. It was a bit rough then but functional enough for a (very)
non-techie to use (still in use as far as I am aware). I cannot vouch
for what state the project is in now however.
The site refers to an outlook plugin which I've never used, so that may
be worth a look also.
You could probably script up something that called gpg for you if
outlook lets you call out to other programs (I've never used outlook).
Cheers....Steve
