Does anyone have .muttrc snippets they'd like to share where #autocrypt is working in #mutt?
I want to recommend #deltachat to my friends but I also want to make sure people won't be tied to particular apps.
@swiley Since 20 years I live in mutt and PGP/GPG combo. With that experience I concluded that encrypted e-mail is a PITA. And not so much because of the key exchange hassle, but because searching my mailboxes does not work any more with encrypted stuff in them 😐. Funny enough, that turned out to be more important for me than encryption. So I ended up with plaintext e-mail, and I encrypt only passwords/credentials. And recently I do that via encrypted IM channels (Matrix), so GPG is good only for signing e-mails - I find that actually useful.
The point: think twice before you encrypt a significant part of your mailbox...
