I was once quite a champion of GnuPG for Mac, put up with the massive geek factor and had it working perfectly. But these days GnuPG is broken on Mac OS X 10.6.x. Don't bother playing with it unless you're one of the developers, it's that nasty at the moment. I've attempted many times over the last full year to help the project, saw great hope last spring, only to have hope dashed this winter with a cacophony of developer infighting, endlessly frustrated would-be users, censored list posts, and chaos all round. I have never seen this before and hope I never do again. RUN AWAY from this software for now, until... (all join hands and pray) ...someone sane takes over the project and straightens out the bloody mess. Until then, I wish the project well.

sry to hear that you are having issues. We still find it rather inappropriate to post a comment like this. Did you ever leave any positive comment on MacUpdate? Also you posted the same comment for three programs - one completely unrelated.
So you think after 17.000 Downloads of GPGMail and one comment like yours, the project is "in chaos". Wow. Pls take a chill pill.
We saw your posts on our mailing list and also responded. Your problem was that you used the installer as well as MacGPG2. That is currently a bad idea. If you remove MacGPG2 (delete the gpg2 file in the hidden folder /usr/local/bin + delete the following file in Library>LaunchAgents com.sourceforge.macgpg2.gpg-agent.plist). Then re-run the installer and everything should be fine.
Imo, this discussions belongs on the mailing list instead of a review section like this.

(1) gpg1 and gpg2 are supposed to be able to coexist; ("... this is currently a bad idea.") If your projects cannot support this they are non-compliant with gnupg, period.
(2) gpgmail 1.3.1 does not work with self-compiled versions of gpg 1.4.11 (or gpg2 v2.0.17) and Apple Mail v4.4 under SL 10.6.6 - why not? What is the difference between the command-line binaries I have successfully compiled myself and the binaries you supply and apparently depend upon?
I find myself tending to agree with Derekcurrie.

it seems there are some misunderstandings here. Let's try to clear the air:
1) our proposal to not use gpg1 and gpg2 at the same time refers to a bug within the GPGTools which is fixed by now. So this proposal is obsolete, as this bug is fixed.
To be very clear: we absolutely support both gpg1 and gpg2. Although GPGTools (Installer) currently only contains gpg2.
2) Sry to say, but this is completely invalid. We have many users reporting that they have no issues using their own compiled versions. If you have trouble, it might be a good idea to join our mailing list and ask for help with your problem, since this is a review section and not the best place for tech support. All we can say is, that this is not true and we have proof for that ;)

Now if only someone would update the GPG 1.4.x installer to the current version (not everyone has Developer Tools installed and can compile stuff on her/his own…) - then everything would be perfect!

The help system is not entirely useful (it opens the Help Viewer, but the links don't work).
With the government listening to everything, it's time for heightened security even in your home email.

Anyways, good to see an Intel version.
