Subject: Third OpenPGP backend: PGG
Date: Tue, 24 Sep 2002 16:45:10 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <iluptv35tvt.fsf@latte.josefsson.org> (raw)

I added support for PGG in mml2015.el, and added a top-level directory
pgg/ which contains PGG and its dependencies.  When copyright
assignment have been checked, hopefully files can be moved into lisp/.

To use it, just put gnus/pgg into your load-path, Gnus should prefer
PGG over gpg.el and Mailcrypt.

The goal is of course to have OpenPGP simply work out of the box.
Mailcrypt and gpg.el cannot be shipped due to copyright problems.

A few months old discussion relating to this follows...
