Re: [hylafax-users] fax encrypted



Hello,

Your recipient is probably using a mail client that uses PGP/MIME or RFC 
2015 encoding.  A decent free one is the Enigmail extension for 
Mozilla/Thunderbird

You can learn more about that at: http://tinyurl.com/4pde9

Here's another list of PHP/MIME clients:

What I would do (and I have never done this -- yet) is to take a look at 
something like kuvert:
http://tinyurl.com/3qvsy

kuvert takes standard mail messages (MIME and all) and encrypts them, 
wrapping them in PGP/MIME if the recipient is in your keyring.  It then 
invokes your MTA (sendmail).

Hope this helps
Bill
