Me: Yay! Decrypting and verifying OpenPGP mail in #moggie seems to finally work!
Also me: Oh damn, I need to parse the protected header stuff too. I helped out on the spec, it would be lame not to...
Still me: Oh damn, I need to move all my decryption logic so I can also use it during composition (decrypt before forward/reply).
Oof. Slowly, slowly...
It says something about #OpenPGP, that one of the main usability benefits of an #email client natively supporting the various flavors of OpenPGP e-mail encryption, is it can make a lot of the noise go away.
Messages are plain easier to read without -----BEGIN PGP FOO----- delimiters and/or extra attachments.
I still don't know *which* kind of noise is easier on the recipient tho. Inline technobabble or confusing attachments?
Dear Internet,
Please find attached a #moggie text-mode #OpenPGP screenshot, for your viewing pleasure!
As of this morning, OpenPGP states appear in the app in vaguely sensible way!
This screenshot demos how the signed part is marked as verified, but the unsigned mailing-list advertisement is not - and since it's a message with signed content, the unsigned bits are de-emphasized by using a darker text color.
I think this is acceptable.
Love,
- B
