I seem to recall a post suggesting the use of epg and gpgsm for s/mime but was not aware anything had made it into the code yet. I'll give it a try. > Yes, let me second that.

I'll have to try that patch as decrypting and viewing is nearly as important to me as being able to encrypt :-) If not, do the back ends allow one to use gpgsm for sending and the old openssl mode for reading? Yeah, I know, I'll go RTFS ;-) Thanks, -- Dave Goldberg david.goldberg6@verizon.net
