That discussion then generalized into adding encryption support for any type using a set of encryption tools such as GnuPG and OpenSSL.=B9 In May, Ted Zlanatov posted gnus-encrypt.el.=B2 I just noticed that this file is still not part of Gnus in CVS. What's the status on this integration? Should I grab gnu-encrypt.el and start testing it, or has it been superseded by some other effort? My main interest is in encrypting ~/.authinfo with gpg using a symmetric cipher. I recall that Ted had this working, but lost track of why the code hasn't yet become a blessed part of Gnus.
