Hi Dan,
Sounds GREAT!!!!! However, how do I compile GPG support into my CVS copy,
or configure for it. I don't see an option on any menu for it and it
doesn't recognize or do anything special during compile.
Thanks for the help!!
Ken
P.S. I really appreciate the work being done early on for gpg/pgp
support. That'll be a big plus!!!

The latest CVS of Evolution now supports decrypting GPG/PGP-encrypted
messages. It can be configured to use GPG, PGP 5, or PGP 2. (The GPG
support and general framework is from Nathan Thompson-Amato. I just
merged it in with some other stuff and added the PGP5/PGP2 support.)
You can't encrypt, sign, or verify yet, and what's there for
decryption will want to be made prettier/nicer/happier at some point,
but it's perfectly usable for reading PGP-encrypted mail. (Oh, to make
it forget your passphrase, use the "Forget Passwords" menu item. You
can't currently make it forget that separately from your POP/IMAP
password.)
Share (secretly) and enjoy.
