GPG encryption plugins for the webmails

(1/2) > >>

Hi,

I am testing WebPG, a Firefox plugin which aims to allow encrypting and reading encrypted mail using GPG directly in the webmail. It has yet some issues, but I wanted to come talk about it because it looks promising. Well in fact I don't know what it is doing right now because it would not let me post in the forum editor without me opening a secure window, where I don't see the buttons of the editor. ^^
(but I'll find a turn around).

You can visit the author's website here: http://www.curetheitch.com/

and the code google repos where I just posted issues and got answers soo fast!

It's sure good to have such a tool. But I prefer to use a real mail client with Enigmail, I find it so much better. You don't have to visit each webmail and you don't have to keep a tab opened in your browser for each address.

This is also what I do: using Sylpheed with gpgme and such, and not having webmails opened. However the tool could be handy when not having a connection allowing more than http and https, and for people who use only webmail with one and only mail address. (Although encrypting a text file which can be sent as an attachment and decrypting it with a command line works fine too).

Slystone:
Oh ok.  :)
Yes, it could be handy.

Hello, I am the author of WebPG and I just wanted to point a few things out.

The best place to learn about WebPG would be http://webpg.org/

The google code repository is really just a way for people to find the project, the actual code lives at https://github.com/kylehuff/webpg-firefox/ and the issue tracker on there is more lively.

I also wanted to point out that WebPG is not only for Mozilla Firefox -- also Chromium and Google Chrome on Windows, Linux and OSX.

And finally, I have the WebPG toolbar enabled, and it does not seem to interfere with replying to this post.
