I will have  aplay later on, but I am nearly sure that it is reading the key 
file. I created a dummy key for the group and gpgmail gave me the option to 
encrypt but with out the key no option to encrypt is available, only sign

Sean, take MFPA's advice and try different combinations of spaces and
angle brackets as above. I would be very surprised if gpgmail scanned
the gpg.conf or the key files directly. It's far more likely that it's
asking gpg to encrypt to an e-mail address that looks like $this.
Figuring out what the "$this" is should allow you to use the group line
transparently.

If I goto the command line and use the -r command line option gpg picks up the 
group ok, however gpgmail is just scanning the keyfile and not finding a key 
for the group, ie the email address

I think the group line is a feature that is not widely used, if it is used 
elsewhere indeed. Apart from the pgpnet group on Yahoo, I have not seen it used

I think it is the way that gpgmail is written it scans the keyfile and not the 
gpg.conf file, I guess few email rograms would. I may try creating a simple key 
for the group and see if gpg will encrypt to the group line as well or instead 
of the created key.

There was a brief discussion about group lines on PGPNET a few months
ago. IIRC, the specifics under discussion were spaces and angle
brackets.

I don't think any conclusions were reached, but it may be worth
experimenting with

group =0x
group  =0x
group  = 0x
group pgp...@yahoogroups.com=0x
group pgp...@yahoogroups.com =0x
group pgp...@yahoogroups.com = 0x

Experience has shown me The Bat! will only match on email address and
requires the angle brackets for the group line to work. And testing
has shown that the spaces make no difference in my current set-up. I'm
reasonably sure somebody posted that they had to remove the angle
brackets to get the group line to work on their set-up.

I don't recall whether anybody reported any significance of spaces, or
whether it was just noted that somebody else used them and I didn't,
and that each of us was just following the pattern we first saw.

I suspect if it is not "seeing" the group line, it would still not see
it. But who knows?

group in gpg.conf but gpgmail does not honor/see

2011-11-13 Thread Sean Rima
Hi

I am looking for a work around to the gpgmail on osx not using the group line 
in the gpg.conf file. I can drop to a terminal but it is not the best idea.

I was wondering if I created a key with the address of the group line, would 
gpg encrypt to the group line or just the key. It is for the pgpnet group on 
yahoo if that help

  That time there was a portability requirement, but that doesn't seem
to be the current case. A truecrypt container would solve the problem,
since it both keeps the files encrypted, and unless the container is
decrypted, people can't put fake files inside.
