Switching from s/mime to openPGP in Apple Mail

Hi all,

I just installed GPGMail for the first time. I've been using s/mime to send mail to some people and I'd like to be able to use openPGP as well, but I found that as long as openPGP is enabled, that's the only option available. For example if I compose a new email to my sister, who only has a s/mime certificate, it simply doesn't allow me to encrypt (padlock button) the email anymore. I read on your support forums that the goal was to switch security modes based on the recipient and what certs are available... or at least allow a button to switch modes. Has that not released yet? I'm running GPGMail v2.0a30, Apple Mail v5.2.

Thanks

   Hi Kyle,

   please try to install the GPGMail nightly version from http://nightly.gpgtools.org.
   It includes the possibility to switch seamlessly between OpenPGP and S/MIME.

   Let us know if it works.

   Thanks!
