Configuring Mutt for GPG
Today i generated a PGP (Pretty Good Privacy) key for my e-mail address. I also configured my mailclient, mutt, for use with GnuPG. I copied a sample file i found on the net but always got an error message: sh: line 1: pgpewrap: command not found. It appears that /usr/lib/mutt/ is not in the path and therefore is not found. Here is the tweaked .muttrc part:
set pgp_decode_command="gpg %?p?--passphrase-fd 0? --no-verbose --batch --output - %f" set pgp_verify_command="gpg --no-verbose --batch --output - --verify %s %f" set pgp_decrypt_command="gpg --passphrase-fd 0 --no-verbose --batch --output - %f" set pgp_sign_command="gpg --no-verbose --batch --output - --passphrase-fd 0 --armor --detach-sign \ --textmode %?a?-u %a? %f" set pgp_clearsign_command="gpg --no-verbose --batch --output - --passphrase-fd 0 --armor \ --textmode --clearsign %?a?-u %a? %f" set pgp_encrypt_only_command="/usr/lib/mutt/pgpewrap gpg --batch --quiet --no-verbose --output - --encrypt \ --textmode --armor --always-trust --encrypt-to 0xE38BE821 -- -r %r -- %f" set pgp_encrypt_sign_command="/usr/lib/mutt/pgpewrap gpg --passphrase-fd 0 --batch --quiet --no-verbose \ --textmode --output - --encrypt --sign %?a?-u %a? --armor --always-trust --encrypt-to 0xE38BE821 -- -r %r -- %f" set pgp_import_command="gpg --no-verbose --import -v %f" set pgp_export_command="gpg --no-verbose --export --armor %r" set pgp_verify_key_command="gpg --no-verbose --batch --fingerprint --check-sigs %r" set pgp_list_pubring_command="gpg --no-verbose --batch --with-colons --list-keys %r" set pgp_list_secring_command="gpg --no-verbose --batch --with-colons --list-secret-keys %r" set pgp_autosign=no set pgp_sign_as=0xE38BE821 set pgp_replyencrypt=yes set pgp_timeout=1800 set pgp_good_sign="^gpg: Good signature from"
