GPG support patch for Balsa 1.3.6 : ---------------------------------- http://foxy.free.fr/balsa-1.3.6-gpg.patch It provides support for PGP/GPG in mode text (RFC 2440) for signing and verifying PGP/GPG signed messages. It requires GPGME v0.3.5 as minimum (http://www.gnupg.org). This patch is for developper only and is build with Balsas sources v 1.3.6. Be careful when you test it (made backups of your mail directory before using it). To install it : - tar xjvf balsa-1.3.6.tar.bz2 - cd balsa-1.3.6/ - patch -p1 < ../balsa-1.3.6-gpg.patch - cp "autogen.sh" from CVS version - ./autogen.sh --> rebuild "configure" with an "--enable-gpgme" option - ./configure --enable-all --enable-gpgme - make - make install It adds an option tab "Privacy" in "Parameters --> Preferences --> Mail Options". In this tab, you have an checkbox to always verify PGP/GPG signed message, an checkbox to sign message by default on compose and a set of radio buttons to choose key to sign message (but this option has no effect at the present time). In the main window with preview-pane, if you read a PGP/GPG signed message and the option in on, a window pop-ups with status of signed message's verification. In a message composition window, I add an option to sign message with the default GPG key (option "Options --> Sign Message with PGP/GPG"). If the option is selected, a request window appears to ask your key's passphrase when you try to send the signed message. You have 3 tries to enter correct GPG secret key's passphrase. Please report me bugs and send me some PGP/GPG signed messages with other MUA to test interoperability. TODO : - support for encrypt and decrypt PGP/GPG message - better code for handling error - add options in GUI - support for PGP/MIME types (RFC 3156) Thx, Foxy.
