Description (last modified by damato)
Security and own Privacy gets more important every day.
Yam should support GnuPG native. http://www.gnupg.org/ PGP on Amiga is quite outdated.
GnuPG support would add up to date PGP support to YAM in an easy way.
There exsits ports for the amiga os/morphos etc.
Shouldnt be to much work as i guess its not to much more then other options calling the gnupg executable.

Regarding PGP/GnuPG: YAM sets a MIME type 'application/pgp' for encrypted mail, http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3156.txt describes the updated, correct way (signatures and keys have their own types). comment:5 Changed 2 years ago by thematic

Still no public GPGme library port for AmigaOS/MorphOS, etc. so we have to move the ticket to 2.9 milestone until we have that. Note: See

In fact, even better, YAM should use the gpgme library interface provided by the GPG authors. That means an amigaos port of the gpgme library should be developed/available and YAM should use it accordingly. However, this may require a substantial amount of work, thus we will schedule for a later YAM version for the moment when we have implemented more pressing things like full multithreading or IMAP support.
