   I am still waiting for an answer.
   I'd pay for support, but as this problem is a showstopper there will be no deal unless this is solved.
   I do like GPGTool, but due to this problem it's not workable for me.

   Hi,
   did you see the article about that topic (mentioned in the footer as recent article, quite next to the link to your post :-)
   https://gpgtools.tenderapp.com/kb/faq/modification-detection-code-m...

   Does that help?
   Cheers,
   Stephan

   As said in that article :
   " We will also provide you with a workaround for GPGMail if necessary. " It is this solution i want . Not extract and decode in external program, then i need no GPGTools at all.

   I repeat : can i have help to get GPGmail to decode my legacy PGP coded mails ??

   No, this article tells how to fix GPGServices. It also says that
   there might be a solution for GPGMail :
   
   We will also provide you with a workaround for GPGMail if necessary.
   

   Decoding in external program can be done with many programs. But then i do not need
   GPGTools . Convince me that i can use GPGMail and i'm in!
