PGP ? GPG ? It's Encrypted!

Not that I’ve ever needed to sign, or encrypt, an email. But I wanted to figure out how to go about it.

I’ve finally managed to create the keys, get the email client configured, and send my first encrypted email. To myself.

I’ve started reading about the process a few times before, but gave up at some point, as it felt too complicated. Now, with MailMate and yesterday’s Canary Mail for iOS purchase, I felt I needed to sort this, just for the challenge.

Still don’t need it working, but wanted to see if I could set it up. While still not too sure about the whole thing, it is working. On macOS AND iOS. Used GPGTools for the job.

Need a lot more time to read all the documentation, but I can now send and receive encrypted emails! Yay!
