It's still true for PGP-Basics; Enigmail's been bit by it within the last year, if memory serves, but it's been generally accepted; GnuPG's been AFAIK stable for it. I've got a few hours free tomorrow; I'll see about fixing this verbiage. I should also add that PGP/MIME *may* give protection to metadata (see Patrick's decision to use the creative header protection scheme you mentioned), with some verbiage about how only Enigmail has promised to implement it. But over the last 18 months or so the metadata issue has become important to a lot of people, so that should also be mentioned. As is my usual, once I draft something I'll post an easily human-readable diff to the mailing list and give people a chance to raise objections and concerns. I'm more the FAQ custodian than the FAQ maintainer -- I want everything in it to reflect community consensus, not just my own opinion. :) > --dkg, noting the irony of the parent message being sent with > S/MIME, an entirely different standard And the MIME attachment being mangled by the mailing list, yes, I agree. It's almost a bizarre endorsement of the attachment fragility idea...
