I think it would be good to provide some kind of:

  * This is what we recommend

  * This is what is now outdated

  * This is what will disappear

classification for users, which would make it much easier to figure
out what to use.

Side note: As a result of this thread, I now installed epa.el (it is
packaged in Debian as easypg, which makes it easy to install) and also
pgg-epa.el, which I'm now using.

As a result, I can now look at my own emails again that I sent out
encrypted. The downside is that the encrypted/signed buttons now do
not contain any more information from GnuPG and all signatures are
always listed as "failed".

Oh well, you can't have everything, I guess.

Regards,
Georg
