Topal is yet another program that links GnuPG and Pine/Alpine. It offers facilities to encrypt, decrypt, sign, and verify messages. Multiple PGP blocks included in the text of a message are processed. Decryption and verification output can be cached to reduce the number of times the passphrase is entered. RFC2015/3156 multipart messages can be sent and received with help from some scripts, procmail, and a patch to Pine/Alpine. It includes basic support for verifying S/MIME multipart/signed messages. There is a remote sending and decryption mode for reading email on a distant computer via SSH with secret keys on the local computer. There is a high level of configurability.License: GNU General Public License v3Changes:
A Topal patch for Alpine 2.00 was added. (Alpine'sS/MIME needs to be turned off for Topal's S/MIMEverification to work.) Temporary files are nowproperly deleted. A bug when guessing the type ofan attachment was fixed. A patch was added toTopal sources for Cygwin (the recent interruptcode doesn't build).
