Signed mail

I just setup a certificate to sign my mail from my primary address following these directions. I think it’s a good idea…though it’s not broadly supported yet. The email system needs a lot of help, but signing and encrypting are good steps in the right direction.

    Hey, thanks for the pointer on this, Greg. I’m getting signed up too, though my copy of Panther doesn’t arrive until tomorrow. I’m glad to see Thawte providing these keys for free. It’s a fair hassle to get signed up, but I think that’s necessary to ensure the level of security they’re aiming to provide.

    There’s no PGP or GPG plugin available for mail.app?
