It offloads the work to the client where it can be most secure (even from Google's mail server).<br /><br />I wonder where and how the private key is stored. There should be a second prompt from the applet to request the password to un-encrypt the private key. In this way, the server keeps only the encrypted version for convenience.jSlim180https://www.blogger.com/profile/08329748849106688700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-82378998945485450902010-02-08T13:58:50.782-08:002010-02-08T13:58:50.782-08:00Definitively, one of the greatest feature to add w...Definitively, one of the greatest feature to add would be PGP... <br /><br />Something like this would be great... <br /><br />Hi Gmail folks,<br />This is a test for the most expected feature on Gmail, PGP!<br /><br /><> <> <> <>Guillermohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17672540128284499393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-27726502574964624682010-02-01T03:12:27.531-08:002010-02-01T03:12:27.531-08:00hey gmail is getting advanced and good i love that...hey gmail is getting advanced and good i love that new features in itjacky jokeshttp://www.jackyjokes.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-70493285465197187182010-01-30T04:26:14.784-08:002010-01-30T04:26:14.784-08:00Any update on this in gmail yet ?
