Hello everybody, I am the office manager here and trying to set up a compatible PGP for some of the employees. I am looking for an open-source, free non-corporate version of the software and have thus found Gnupg using the gpg4win front end, running through the Enigmail extension on Thunderbird. We are using Windows boxes here.
I have succeeded in installing it and getting it to work. However, there have been many little details that prevent me from rolling this out to the other employees. My last problem, I believe, is attachments. I have installed gpgee which encodes and decodes attachments (as there seems to be no function to do this in Engimail or win4gpg. When I encode attachments, it gives them a .gpg suffix. My colleagues who are using PGP Desktop cannot decode those files. Though I can decode their files, either using the gpgee contextual menu or automatically through enigmail. Practically speaking, is there a solution for this? My colleagues are most likely going to want to continue using PGP Desktop. Theoretically speaking, what is the difference between PGP and GPG? Is it just a different management tool handling the same encryption algorithm or is there some further translation between the two? Why does my Enigmail menu on Thunderbird say OpenPGP, but it is using the GnuGPG engine? Thank you! _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
