No Idea how I got this GPS Tool, what it is and what my password for it is. All I know is I cannot use my email due to this tool. Please advise promptly.

   Hi John,

   in order to uninstall the GPGMail plugin, please follow these steps:

   1. Quit Mail.app
      
   2. open new Finder window
      
   3. press ⇧⌘G, paste the following: '/Library/Mail/Bundles' or '~/Library/Mail/Bundles' and press enter
      
   4. Delete GPGMail.mailbundle
      
   5. Restart Mail.app

   After that you should be able to send emails just as before.

   Hope that helps.

   This KB-article explains how to uninstall GPGTools.

   So if you accidentally installed GPG Suite, that installs all components.

   If you want to learn about GPG Suite please read our Getting Started Tutorial.

   Regarding the passphrase requests: the pinentry requests you are seeing are happening due to the migration from MacGPG 2.0.x to 2.2.0.

   Please visit the following KB-article and let me know if that brings you back to the expected state.

   Let me know if you need any further assistance.

   Best,
   steve
