ok, i've spent a number of hours over the last two days going over the list archives for mutt and gnupg reading up on the conventions for signing messages. it is now my understanding that there are 3 ways to sign a message: pgp/mime, ascii armor, and application/pgp. i'm not certain on the terminology for the last two or even that there is a difference between them. might someone enlighten me?
given the above, i know mutt handles pgp/mime natively and that it can do application/pgp with the pgp_create_traditional. my problem is that neither of these formats appears to work if the recipient is using outlook. btw - the outlook is set up to use the g-data gnu-plugin. is there a way to get mutt to use ascii armor and will that be viewable by my outlook user? will the ascii armor work for encryption as well? if you care, i am trying to set up a secure email route route from me to my accountant who uses outlook. can anyone give me some pointers for setting mutt/gnupg up to work with an outlook user? thanks. -- Peter Abplanalp Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP: pgp.mit.edu
