Re: Thunderbird / Enigmail / Autocrypt

2020-11-21 Thread Patrick Brunschwig
If you think about using the current stable version of Thunderbird
(version 78), then there is no Enigmail and no Autocrypt. OpenPGP has
been implemented directly in Thunderbird, but there is currently no
Autocrypt support in Thunderbird.

Re: Ask for passphrase once, but require confirmation each time a key is used?

2020-11-21 Thread Franck Routier (perso)
You could use a Yubikey: correctly configured, it will required you to
touch the yubikey capacitor button to allow the use of the gpg key
(once the passphrade is cached of course)

Thanks, that could be an option - but not a cheap one it seems.
I'm also considering writing a pinentry program that does what I want,
however the last attempt ended in nothing but frustration...

This is all serialized because the gpg-agent does the actual signing.
There is one gpg-agent per GNUPGHOME.  Thus the easiest solution for you
is to provide copies of the GNUPGHOME and either set this envvar for
each process or pass --homedir=decicated-homedir-copy.  You can't use
links to the same directory because we use lock files.  However, it
should be possible to sumlink the private-keys-v1.d sub directories.

Mailvelope comes to mind or you write your own thing using gpgme-json as
the native messaging server.  Mailvelope can use gpgme-json.

There is also openpgp.js as a solid Javascript implementation of
OpenPGP.


Shalom-Salam,

Checkout Claws-mail which was forked from Sylpheed many years ago.  The
OpenPGP and S/MIME integration of both was initially done by me but many
others improved it at lot.  Claws is like Thunderbird cross-platform.

The current TB OpenPGP support is pretty basic after they removed
Enigmail.

Many thanks. I've written a Python script 
(https://github.com/cqcallaw/www/blob/94f0dbb84fa3908acdd698d7b67071bf4f2a723b/sign.py)
 to handle the parallel signing; I'll look into the browser options shortly.

Cheers,

Re: Thunderbird / Enigmail / Autocrypt

2020-11-21 Thread Daniel Bossert via Gnupg-users
Hello Werner

I would like to use claws-mail, but it looked quite old-school when I last used 
it.
There was no auto-configure of mail setup (find mail-server by itself).

But I will install it again and check it out.

Thank you
Daniel
