doc: initial attempt to document setup of pgp support for email.
Used an AI assistant to help write this. Basic gpg commands seem to
work, but I have not tested this totally. Docs basically follow the
setup used for pgp testing in the test suite.
It looks like roundup accepts signed emails as well as encrypted
and signed emails. But it does not generate signed emails.
Also it looks like there is no PGP support for alternate email
addresses. Only primary addresses can do PGP emails.

The reason for this is that Microsoft Internet Explorer will not open things with a .eml attachment, as they deem it 'unsafe'. Worse yet, they'll just give you an incomprehensible error message. For more information, please see: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;825803 Their suggested work around is (excerpt): WORKAROUND To work around this behavior, rename the .EML file that the URL links to so that it has a .MHT file name extension, and then update the URL to reflect the change to the file name. To do this: 1. In Windows Explorer, locate and then select the .EML file that the URL links. 2. Right-click the .EML file, and then click Rename. 3. Change the file name so that the .EML file uses a .MHT file name extension, and then press ENTER. 4. Updated the URL that links to the file to reflect the new file name extension. So... we do that. :)''' if newvalues.get('type', '').lower() == "message/rfc822": if 'name' not in newvalues: newvalues['name'] = 'email.mht' return name = newvalues['name'] if name.endswith('.eml'): name = name[:-4] newvalues['name'] = name + '.mht' def init(db): db.file.audit('create', eml_to_mht)
