- Has anyone been working on a pgp interface for MIME ?
-
-
- here's what a friend of mine have been using (under mhn):
-
- mhn-show-application/x-pgp: %ppgp -m %F
- mhn-store-application/x-pgp: %m%P.pgp
-
- which seems to work fine. i initially tried text/x-pgp but for some
- reason the encrypted file wasn't being transferred properly. i don't
- use the -a option of pgp. so the procedure is much like this:
-
- edit file
- pgp -e file user_name
- comp
- [insert proper directives for mhn to insert a application/x-pgp file]
- send the message and delete the original files.
-
- works like a charm. now if i could only get mh to auto-encrypt my
- messages, i'd be a really happy camper.
