PGP.sig file as attachment instead of embedded in email

  • 1.  PGP.sig file as attachment instead of embedded in email

    Posted May 23, 2011 06:51 PM

    Hi -- I am currently running PGP Desktop v10.1.2 Build 9 on a MacOS 10.6.7.  I am attempting automatically  to sign all email messages where the PGP key is found.

    I am using Apple Mail 4.5 (1084) to send messages. 

     

    I modified the Opportunistic Encryption Security Policy to send ..if a recipient key cannot be found ... 'clear-sign message'.

    I tried sending the email messages to my personal account.  I attempted to set the message encoding to automaic, PGP/MIME/S-MIME, etc.  But the PGP signed message is being received as a clear-text message with PGP.sig attachment.

     

    -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
    Hash: SHA1

       Done.
    -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----
    Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux)

    REDADACTED PGP KEY.

    -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

     

    Can someone help me set it up so that all unencrypted messages are sent as a PGP signed message?  Thanks!

    I also responded to the other post on this - the encoding should be set to PGP Partitioned.
