Hi, they hacked MD5, not SHA1, about 2 years ago, and it's "only" for messages of size >= 1024 B. One Czech cryptographic guy made a program to create collision in about 8 seconds on a regular notebook. :)
SHA1 still persists, as far as I know. There is currently no way how to use SHA256, unfortunately. It seems to me that gpg uses for hash one of these methods: "--digest-algo=MD2" "--digest-algo=MD5" "--digest-algo=SHA1" "--digest-algo=RIPEMD160" but in a code is forced SHA1. Sounds like an enhancement request. Bye, Milan Crha On Mon, 2007-10-22 at 21:31 +0200, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Hi, > if I use gnupg in evolution, it uses sha1.
