Mail/GnuPG version 0.15_1

Use GnuPG::Interface to process and/or create PGP signed or encrypted email.

(See the inline documentation for more information)

This is a development release. It works for me and at least four or five other people. It may not work for you. If it doesn't, patches are appreciated.

There is a known issue where some messages may not verify properly because they use a fuzzy encoding like Quoted-Printable, and may decode slightly differently in different places.

KNOWN ISSUES

#2718 - https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=2718

Mail::GnuPG assumes the signature is calculated on the decoded MIME data (which is the only thing it can get from MIME::Entity). Jörn Reder is working on a solution.

TODO

• Get rid of 'cut' dependency.
• Consider nicer/prettier interface
• Use GnuPG::Interface's internal passphrase handling
• Add tests
• Use GnuPG::Handle->{direct} to pass files directly to gpg
