I would like to know how to set up PGP 2.6 UNIX so that I can filter(ELM) mail through PGP from the filter without being signed on the(remote) system. I believe that the path variable is involved($PGPPATH). The ELM filter works fine while I am physically signed on but stops encrypting when I send mail to the filter from a remote account. Presumably the program looks at the "current"directory for public key files---/usr/local/bin/pgp and the keys are really in my personal account /usr/homef/me/.pgp. I am NOT UNIX expert so if you send a response a 4th grade programming level explanation will not be viewed as "playing down" I am assuming I can use "setenv $PGPPATH =/usr/homef/me/pgp" in csh and that will work while I am logged into the account. Question (I think)is how to provide a path statement while I am not signed on and have th csh-ell active. Some sample statements are helpful. BTW the same question is interesting for Procmail and I would apprecitae some recipes from the cyphercognoscenti for this problem regards,Syl
