<p>There is incompatibility between GPG4win unfortunately and this
is something that I know the team is looking to resolve (even
verifying signed emails is hard sometimes- Luke can provide more
insight to this :) )</p></div>wingmantag:gpgtools.tenderapp.com,2011-11-04:Comment/357018272015-01-22T19:03:45Z2015-01-22T19:03:45ZCompatibility with GPG4Win<div><p>Hi Pete,</p>
<p>what you are mentioning here is the fact, that some outlook
users might have issues with PGP/MIME.</p>
<p>GPGMail defaults to the only standard there is for sending
OpenPGP Mails, which is PGP/MIME. The format you are referring to,
is called PGP/Inline and is an undocumented non-standard format,
which leads to several problems, which is why we default to
PGP/MIME.</p>
<p>Nevertheless you can switch GPGMail to use OpenPGP/Inline. While
this is not encouraged, we've added that option.<br>
Find out how to do that <a href=
"http://support.gpgtools.org/kb/faq-gpgmail/gpgmail-2-hidden-settings#enable-pgp-inline-for-support-of-legacy-mail-clients-important-for-windows-compatability-">
here</a>.</p>
<p>There's no difference in security level, yet you have to be
aware, that while PGP/MIME also encrypts all attachments,
OpenPGP/Inline does not!</p>
<p>Also, you're limited to text only. Any formatting will be
ignored.</p>
<p>If you want to read more about the deficites of Inline/PGP you
may want to read this note of Daniel Kahn Gillmore called <a href=
"https://dkg.fifthhorseman.net/notes/inline-pgp-harmful/">Inline
PGP signatures considered harmful</a>.</p>
<p>Changing to OpenPGP/Inline should still be possible on OS X
10.10.</p>
<p>All the best,<br>
