Hi,
I wrote a small hack for bbdb, so depending on your bbdb entry the
message is
- encrypted+signed (pgp, mime)
- encripted+signed (smime)
Where I use epg and gpgsm or (gpg)[1] (I use encrypt-to option in
gpgsm.conf. And I am not sure whether I understand your comment on
emacswiki). It seems that your approach is more general not relying on
bbdb, am I correct?
I have no real strong opinions on the questions you asked, only I hope
that none of your change will break backwards compatibility.
Uwe Brauer
Footnotes:
[1] I prefer smime over pgp, simply it is easier for the average user
(my corresponds) to set up and the key interchange is also simpler
since the public key is embedded in the signature.
