John Olinda Teaching students how to use PGP is the best evidence I can provide that we need a simpler solution for encrypted email.

Mark Dain I was trying to solve this by making an easy to use PGP client for iOS but the biggest problem is without a plugin system for Mail, I was severely limited by how easy I could make it. I ended up scrapping the project in the end.

Martijn Is there anything wrong with the MacGPG plugin? I found it pretty easy to send encrypted email with that, literally just a toggle button.

Mark Dain No, I use that every day, it's what I was basing my app off. Biggest problem with MacGPG: it doesn't run on iOS and I'm not sure that could ever make its way to iOS due to the lack of mail plugin support

Martijn Good point. I use K-9 on my Android phone, which does offer GPG support.
