Is it me or a lot of the responses here a little bot like. Looks like anorchestrated discreditation campaign.
What percentage of users actually need GPG encryption? If they really need it, they can find services to do it on.
Everybody I know who is into using GPG, wants to be 100% in control of their keys.
I'm sure they do, but this feels like 1% of 1% of users. To trash an email client that will be vastly superior to most for a ridiculously niche case even amongst nerds is a bit weird.
You can be if you encrypt manually. It's easy and works everywhere.
