Synopsis: PGP Mails in Evolution RC2 not working with MS Outlook 2000
Bugzilla-Product: Evolution
Bugzilla-Component: Mailer

Description:
Basically, signed, encrypted or mails with attachments that are
encrypted are not working properly with EVolution rc2 when they are
received by Outlook 2000.

The mail is received as 2 separate dat files. One wxhich has no PGP
information and jsut has the PGP version number and the other dat file
which can be saved and then turned into a .asc file through renaming and
then decrypted/verifed for its recipient will yield a straight text file
which is created without an extension. if you change this to a .txt file
you can then read the message, but the attachment is still uuencoded as
base64 text in the body of the text and difficlt to get out.

It is a real pain to use the PGP encryption in Evolution with Outlook. I
think you *really* need to get this fixed if you want someone to be able
to switch over to Evolution and still communicate with Windows users.

Keep up the fantastic work though!!! Very happy with Evolution other
than that.

Relevant software: Evoluiton 0.99.2 rc2, GPG 1.06 postfix mail server
on the Win box: Win2000, Outlook 2000, PGP for personal privacy 6.5.8
with Outlook plugins.
