GPGmail

Developer: Home Page License: Freeware Rating:

GPGMail is a plug-in for Apple's Mail, providing a front-end to gpg for some operations. It allows you to read/write encrypted messages, as well as electronically signed messages. GPGMail extends Apple's Mail application and allows you to read and send PGP authenticated and/or encrypted messages. You can use GPGMail for plain text and MIME messages, following RFC 3156.

I have been using this for all my email encryption since mid 2003, with zero problems of any kind, its yet another example of functionality that Apple should have integrated into mail.app. In short if you want secure email, you really want this. Highly recommended. [more]
