Often when I sign emails using GnuPG the recipient get an empty email.
This is specially happen with @gmx.de and @web.de adresses.

Also I often have problems with attachemets. Specially with code (absolute
files etc.). It seems that this attachements are cut of or the emails
aren't go through at all.

It is happen with both !Pluto and also !Messenger.

What I'm doing wrong?

!Pluto is looking for gnupguser$path :

So I included the line

set gnupguser$path ADFS::HardDisc4.$.!Boot.Resources.!UnixHome.home./gnupg

to the file !Pluto.Boot. to set it. It is working yet but did I do it in
the right way?

Thanks in advance,

Alex'

Does it ever work ok (ie to a recipient also using PGP), and in what
circumstances?

If you can improve on the Pluto help on installing and using PGP or
GnuPG, please let me know. It is currently very sparse!

Pluto certainly checks that GnuPGUser$Path exists, otherwise displays
a message. But it should be set by !GnuPGUser. Are you using the
download from Stefan Bellon of GnuPG v1.4.9-sb1, and have you
installed !GnuPG and !GnuPGUser?

That value looks wrong - it should be set to refer to !GnuPGUser from
what I can see.

I found !GnuPG in ADFS::HardDisc4.$.!Boot.Resources but couldn't find
!GnuPGUser anywhere on my harddisc.

I can't find !GnuPGUser on my harddisc. The keys are there:

ADFS::HardDisc4.$.!Boot.Resources.!UnixHome.home/gnupg

I don't know why.

I think I installed a GnuPG version from Chris Gransen. Not from Stefan
Bellon.

I can't find the URL again where I downloaded it.

Do we have different versions of GnuPG for RISC OS which works differently
and that may cause the problem?

Thanks in advance.

Probably http://www.cgransden.co.uk/gnupg.zip

To me, Chris's version looks like
- an update of Stefans version.
- an 'initial' test with limitations and unknowns.

I suggest you get the version from http://www.sbellon.de and see if
that works. Then by all means try the version from Chris, but note
that files have to be copied into !UnixHome.home./gnupg. and to
satisfy Pluto the variable has to be set to something (I do not think
the value will matter).

Please report how you get on.

And also, from the description, Chris's GnuPG files copied over (and added
to) those from Stefan.

The version of Stefan (link above) is odd. It doesn't work:

| gpg: signal 11 caught ... exiting
| | UnixLib detected recursion of signal SIGSEGV. Exiting.

The version of Chris is working but it seems to look the keys at

ADFS::HardDisc4.$.!Boot.Resources.!UnixHome.home./gnupg.

instead of

<GnuPGUser$Dir>

although I cannot import or export any keys with Chris version at the
moment. Strange.

Sorry, I have tried to import a PGP signature instead of public key!
Importing public keys is working.

Exporting keys leads to a mess. When this is the public key I imported

-----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----
