Gudday, People were suggesting that someone write a mailer with PGP support, and because my site uses lots of PCs connected to an internet host, I was thinking of using an SMTP-client based system. That much I think I can do. However, I am also now trying to learn to program for Windows, and the idea of a windows based PGP is quite nice, and with an integrated mailer it would be great. Is anyone else working on either of these two things? What are the implications (security wise) of using something like windows where tasks aren't really that hidden from each other and that swaps to disk? I notice that PGP bothers to erase its stacks and work areas. It seems that this would be a lot less possible under windows. Comments? Jim McGrath
sounds like it might be a good idea to implement windowing support for pgp. we could write versions for windows, xwindows, mac and possibly other systems. it would not be too hard to write a generic windowed pgp and then make it specific for these systems. e
