Subject: Pine & PGP?

Hi all,

I would like to be able to use PGP with Pine. What I would like to be able
to do is, get a message and before sending it encrypt it withe the
recipients public key. A small menu asking me if I want to sign the
message etc. would also be helpful. In the case of a PGP encryped/signed
message, I would like that the reverse happens without me having to
explicitly call the PGP program.

I hope that guys out there have got what I mean to say. Thanks for any
pointers in this regard.

But there should be something like this in the FAQ:

	Q: How do I use pine with pgp.
	A: For political reasons, pine does not provide pgp
	   support. However, there are several scripts available on
	   the internet that perform various pgp tasks and can be used 
	   in a sending filter. Among them are pgp-ping by Roland
	   Rosenfeld and papp by Aldo Valente.

NEEDED: Beta testers for NEW pgp pine filter
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Most of you are familiar with pgppine and papp.

A friend of mine and I have taken a copy of papp and performed practically
a total rewrite on it.  The program has many of the old features, like
saving your password encrypted in a session key, but also has some handy
new features, and MUCH more readable output.  If you would like to help us
test it (We haven't found any bugs in it with pine v3.96 and pgp v2.6.2),
just drop me a line.  NOTE: this program is available by request only
until beta testing is completed, then we will post the perl
script wherever.

NOTE: be sure to include something in the Subject of your message
pertaining to beta testing, as my mailbox gets flooded from time to time.

Also, any suggestions as to other places to go for beta testers
would be appreciated.

Thank You,
Patrick Farabee
