Hi, First, a warning: I am by no means a "security expert" and I have very little experience with Mac OS X, which I only use at my workplace (and only because my employer didn't let me use a GNU/Linux workstation...).
However and for what it's worth: On Tue, Nov 06, 2018 at 06:48:07AM -0500, Nicholas Papadonis wrote: > I noticed that there are two OSX packages for GPG: > > Mac GPG Installer from the gpgtools project > GnuPG for OS X Installer for GnuPG There's a third possibility, which is the one I use: install the GnuPG provided by the MacPorts project [1]. Install MacPorts and then simply run: $ port install gnupg2 MacPorts packagers seem keen to provide the latest versions and to update their ports quickly when upstream publishes a new release. For example, Libgcrypt was updated to version 1.8.4 the day after that version was released. > I'm considering using the Mac Mail.app I tried to build the Mail.app plugin from the gpgtools project, but failed. I don't remember what the problem was, just that I gave up. I am currently using alternatively Neomutt (also installed through MacPorts), which natively supports GnuPG, and Thunderbird with Enigmail. Everything is working fine, including smartcard support. Whether this is a "better integrated" solution than using Mail.app I cannot tell. Hope that helps a bit. Damien [1] https://www.macports.org/
