Graham, thanks very much for this info but understand
I'm totally naive when it comes to encryption, etc. As a
practical matter, is PGP good for emailing my everyday
email correspondents all over the world? Does the
recipient need anything special to read my "encrypted"
msgs? ..Or is it just the headers that get encrypted?
What complications are caused by PGP? Is PGP troublesome
for email lists -- for instance egroups.com where I
belong to several lists? It's not like I'm emailing
legal documents or anything so is it still worth
installing in your opinion? You see I'm not sure how it
works. I see things like:
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----
Version: PGP 6.5.8
Comment: To get my keys send email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
iQA/AwUBOdru3y7i2PqZ2xC9EQIAcACg8zqQAC4uqX/KHYDIImKgFsDpx2EAn0a/
RjtfGhALxct/fLgbELCQc40T
=HPRz
-----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
And I haven't the foggiest idea what it means.
