Since some working groups will use encrypted emails and/or
encrypted<br>
email lists, it is a good idea if everybody tries to learn to
encrypt<br>
emails with PGP / GnuPG / GPG.<br>
<br>
Here are some useful resources:<br>
<br>
A) In order to understand how PGP works, you might want to read
the<br>
Wikipedia page in your mother tongue.<br>
<br>
B) If you run Linux and use the GNOME desktop environment<br>
(standard for many distributions), you might want to use the mail<br>
program "evolution". In this guide, you can learn how to encrypt
with<br>
evolution.<br>
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://riseup.net/en/email/clients/evolution">https://riseup.net/en/email/clients/evolution</a><br>
<br>
C) Alternatively, or if you do _not_ run Linux with the GNOME
desktop<br>
environment, you might want to use the email program "thunderbird"<br>
together with the "enigmail" plugin. Most people I know use these<br>
programs. You can find instructions here:<br>
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://ssd.eff.org/en/module/how-use-pgp-linux">https://ssd.eff.org/en/module/how-use-pgp-linux</a><br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://riseup.net/en/security/message-security/openpgp/enigmail">https://riseup.net/en/security/message-security/openpgp/enigmail</a><br>
<br>
D) It may make sense to use a separate program for the management
of<br>
encryption keys, because the already mentioned programs do not
offer<br>
all options for key management, or do misbehave in certain
situations.<br>
Therefore, you might consider to have a separate program for key<br>
management available. You can find instructions here:<br>
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://riseup.net/en/security/message-security/openpgp/gpg-keys">https://riseup.net/en/security/message-security/openpgp/gpg-keys</a><br>
<br>
E) If you are using claws-mail or are considering to use this
program,<br>
and have difficulties with encryption, you can write me an email.<br>
<br>
F) If you have other questions regarding encyption, you can write
me an<br>
email.<br>
<br>
<br>
Recommendation<br>
-----------------------<br>
<br>
if you are using encryption and have an encryption key, it is
totally<br>
safe and also makes sense to publish your public key on some key<br>
servers.<br>
<br>
