GPG SUITE AT A GLANCE


 * IT'S ALL ABOUT THE KEYS
   
   To use GPG to encrypt and verify mails or files you and your friends need GPG
   keys.
   
   GPG Keychain lets you manage your own keys and find and import keys of your
   friends.


 * CREATE YOUR OWN KEY
   
   Enter your name and the email address you want to use your key with and you
   are ready to go.
   
   You don't have to bother with more advanced settings, we set good defaults
   for you.


 * UPLOAD YOUR KEY TO A KEY SERVER SO YOUR FRIENDS CAN FIND IT
   
   When creating a key, you have the option to upload it to a key server, which
   makes it very easy for your friends to find and import it.


 * ALREADY AN EXPERT?
   
   When creating a key, you can enable the advanced view, which lets you choose
   key size, expiration date and algorithm to use for your keys. Have full
   control over your keys.


 * SEE ALL YOUR KEYS
   
   The main window of GPG Keychain shows you all your keys and the keys of your
   friends.
   
   Enable the "Show secret keys only" checkbox, to see only the keys you
   created.


 * THE TOOLBAR
   
   gives you quick access to the most important actions. Create a new key,
   import or export an existing key, or search for a specific key using the
   search field.


 * MORE OPTIONS
   
   Select a key and right-click on it to bring up a context menu, letting you
   send your key to a key server, update or manage the details of your key.


 * ADD ADDITIONAL EMAIL ADDRESSES
   
   Select your key and press the info button in the toolbar to add additional
   email addresses.


 * WRITE SECURE MESSAGES WITH MAIL
   
   After installing GPG Suite, you'll see two new buttons when writing a new
   email: the lock button and the sign button next to it.


 * THE LOCK BUTTON
   
   Activate the lock button to encrypt an email. Only you and the recipient will
   be able to read the contents of your message. Toggle between encrypting and
   not encrypting your email pressing ⌥ ⌘ Y.


 * THE SIGN BUTTON
   
   Activate the sign button to sign an email. The recipient will be able to
   tell, that the email came from you and whether or not it was tampered with in
   any way.
   
   Toggle between signing and not signing your email pressing ⌥ ⌘ X.


 * CHOOSE BETWEEN PGP AND S/MIME
   
   Using the security method indicator in the upper right corner, you can
   quickly switch between PGP and S/MIME. This is very handy if you use both.
   
   Press ⌥ ⌘ P to activate PGP or ⌥ ⌘ S to activate S/MIME.


 * RECEIVE SECURE MESSAGES WITH MAIL
   
   The "Security:" header will tell you, if the message you've received was
   signed or encrypted.
   
   If the message was successfully decrypted, you'll see an open lock. If the
   signature of the message is valid, you'll see a star icon with a checkmark.
   
   Make sure to click "Details" to see the security header.


 * SIGNED MESSAGES
   
   will show the email address associated with your friend's key that was used
   to sign this message.
   
   Click on the signature icon to see more infos regarding the key and
   signature.


 * ENCRYPTED OR SIGNED ATTACHMENTS
   
   If the message contains encrypted or signed attachments, they will be
   automatically decrypted and verified. The attachments will look like any
   other non-encrypted attachments to you, while still being protected.


 * SOMETIMES THINGS GO WRONG
   
   It might happen that someone encrypted a mail for another recipient but
   mistakenly sent it to you and so you're not able to read it. Or a signed
   message you're receiving was modified without your knowledge. Or anything
   else could have gone wrong. In these cases we're trying to be as helpful as
   possible by providing good explanations of what happened.


 * FIND OUT WHAT WENT WRONG
   
   Whenever we detect that something's not right, you'll see a banner with an
   error message, letting you know what the problem is.
   
   To get detailed information about a problem, click on "Show Details" which
   contains a better description of the problem and possible solutions to it.
