Not sure I understand the need ldap or for any c setuid wrapper in

encryption/decryption/signing/verification with openssl & php so
maybe I am missing something. I would be willing to help do some
coding on this (even though I would rather see it implemented as a
plugin). I just want to make sure there is the option for using
backends other then PGP.
yep, there's no need for this in roundcube - its just what we needed :-)
x509 and ldap go hand in hand.
a setuid wrapper for gpg is necessary for us to write to user's home
directories, but is likely not going to be the most common way that
roundcube users would deploy encryption/signing of messages.
Gotcha.. thats what I figured.
it would be nice to offer different options as you say.
It would be very nice, that is why I think it may be best to do this as
a plugin instead of integrating it into the core branch of roundcube.
That way if someone does not like the encryption plugin that comes with
roundcube, they can write their own replacement instead of having to
hack at the core itself (or the encryption side of it).
