 Yes Armin, there is!

You need both Becky 2 and the GnuPG plug-in, but be warned GnuPG runs as a
command line Dos program under Windows with no keyserver support.  For this,
at present, you will also need to download the freeware version of PGP.

Becky 2 will allow you to Sign, Encrypt, Decrypt, and Verify but you will
need to undertake key management through Dos.

It is at the present time the *only* Windows e-mailer supporting GnuPG,
although I understand The Bat! will support OpenPGP when v 2 is produced
(don't hold your breath!).  There is a version of Pine for Windows but it
does not support GnuPG and nobody who has written PGP support for Pine under
Linux that I have contacted has thought about Pine for Windows.

So, for the moment, its Becky 2.  Currently its in advanced Beta form and
available from:

http://www.RIMarts.co.jp

This program is shareware (or will be when out of Beta) but the GnuPG
plug-in is freeware.  It is available from:

http://hp.vector.co.jp/authors/VA023900/gpg-pin/BkGnuPG031.zip

It too is Beta, but very stable.

If you want to download these, I'll be pleased to talk you (or your wife)
through setting it all up!  I like Becky 2 and the plug-in, as you can see
from below!


Please PGP/GnuPG sign mail for verification and encrypt for internet security
