Oliver, thanks for looking at my problem. More details follow. That
said I sense the answer to my question is “Nope there isn’t…”
I get emails from many vintage correspondents who sign all their emails.
That triggers MailMate to complain it can’t find the
/usr/local/bin/gpg. That opens pops top off a barrel of monkeys and a
flash back to having solved this in past lives.
So things come to mind…
1. “Gpg” eh? What about “gpg2” … my memory is that last time
I did this I used gpg2.
2. “/usr/local/bin” eh? I thought the brew folks moved to
/opt/homebrew/bin on Apple Silicon.
3. I seem to remember solving this, at last once, with a symbolic link
to where I found gpg installed, but that was a longtime ago.
4. I did happen upon a posting in this mailing list, maybe a year (or
two) old that mentions setting an environment variable to help guide
Mailmate to this exceubable.
4a. Of course mailMate runs as a child/spawn, of launchd. Luck me I
already know how to set environment variable in launchd for this kind of
thing.
4b. Then I found an email that mentioned using “defaults set” to
inject this info into mailmate
defaults write com.freron.MailMate environmentVariables -array
'{enabled = :true; name = "MM_GPG"; value = "/opt/homebrew/bin/gpg"; }'
5. I don’t see info. About this in recent mailing list content.
So at point I seemed reasonably to ask if this was written down
someplace.
If not, I’ll just kick it until something works :)

I hadn’t actually tried it since I started using MailMate, since PGP
doesn’t come along too often for me these days. So I was curious, I
tried it and it works correctly. This is an M4 Mac, so unless you’re
referring to a problem specific to the M2 I wonder what it is?

I’m moving over to a new M2 Mac. So PGP encryption stopped
working.
I see plenty of discussion about this the archives of this esteemed
mailing list.
Is this documented some place? - ben
