Use Thuderbird's Enigmail to post to PGPnet (and other encrypted lists)
<html>
<p>First you need to install GnuPG for your OS and create a key. Then you need to install Mozilla's Thunderbird and install ehr Enigmail plug-in.</p>
<p>Now on to the fun part!</p>
<p>In your gpg.conf file add a section like this to the bottom:</p>
<p><br></p>
<p># PGPnet</p>
<p>group &lt;pgpnet@yahoogroups.com&gt;=0x9CC6C4F03F370F7E 0x4F320C12F7CDD569 ...</p>
<p><br></p>
<p>This is a sample of the beginning of the group line so that you can get&nbsp;</p>
<p>an idea of what it looks like. The full line is a list of the long key&nbsp;</p>
<p>IDs for all current PGPnet subscribers.</p>
<p><br></p>
<p>This file called Group Line.txt on the PGPnet files page on Yahoo.</p>
<p><br></p>
<p>You also need to get a copy of PGPNET.asc and import the keys into your keyring.</p>
<p>This can be done through Enigmail.</p>
<p><br></p>
<p>Now down to business!</p>
<p><br></p>
<p>Then create a P-R rule like this:</p>
<p><br></p>
<p>1. "Set OpenPGP rules for": pgpnet@yahoogroups.com</p>
<p>2. Select "Use the following OpenPGP keys"&nbsp;</p>
<p>3. Click on "Select Key(s)..." and select the group line</p>
<p>that you just added in the previous step as the key. It's usually at the top of the&nbsp;</p>
<p>key list.</p>
<p>3. "Signing": Always</p>
<p>4. "Encryption": Always</p>
<p>5. "PGP/MIME": Never</p>
<p><br></p>
<p>Save this P-R rule</p>
<p><br></p>
<p>Now when the group line and keys are updated all you need to do is</p>
<p>copy/paste the new group line into your gpg.conf file and import the</p>
<p>updated PGPKeys.asc file.</p>
<p><br></p>
<p>Then you're good to go with all the current members.</p>
