Basically, if 13: >you have written a script to integrate PGP into some mailer, mailer 14: >agent, mail reader, news reader, or anything like that, please send me 15: >a copy of the script, any documentation you may have, and instructions 16: >for use. 17: 18: Here is a shellscript that I use with the "mailx" mailer to send encrypted 19: messages under Unix. Basically, to use this script, I have the following 20: command in my .mailrc file: "set sendmail=/the/full/path/name/to/this/script" 21: This has the effect of causing mailx to invoke the script, rather then 22: /bin/mail as the Unix mailer. In this respect, it can be used by any mailer 23: that can be made to pass off the to-be-mailed message to a script rather 24: than the /bin/mail program. The script is written for the Korn Shell, 25: although it would be fairly trivial to modify it to work with the standard 26: Bourne Shell. It looks for two special mail "addresses": 27: enc=pgp_identifier 28: sig=pgp_identifier 29: The first form "enc=pgp_identifier" or "encrypt=pgp_identifier" specifies 30: that the pgp public key uniquely identified by <pgp_identifier> be used to 31: encrypt the message. The second "sig=pgp_identifier" specifies that the 32: secret key identified by <pgp_identifier> be used to sign the message. 33: Either or both can be used. If enc is given, the message is encrypted, 34: optionally signed, ascii armored and delivered to the real mailer for 35: distribution. If only sig is given, the message is signed in +clearsig 36: mode and the result passed on. In any case, the header is exempt from 37: the process and is passed on intact. 38: 39: To send an encrypted message, address the mail to both the recipient and 40: the mail address "enc=pgp_identifier". Ditto to sign a message. Mailx 41: allows use of a "bcc: " field (Blind copy-to), so the enc= or sig= can 42: be optionally specified there. 43: 44: There are a few gotchas: Since pgp grabs the first key that matches 45: the pgp_identifier, you can encrypt to the wrong key if you specify 46: pgp_identifier too loosely. Also, if you break out of the script, it 47: delivers a null message. 48: 49: Without further ado, here is the script: 50: =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= 51: #!/bin/ksh 52: # This script is invoked by adding the line "set sendmail=pgpmail" to your 53: # .mailrc file. mailx then invokes pgpmail instead of /bin/mail to deliver 54: # email. This script checks whether encryption, a signature, or both are 55: # specified, and automatically performs whatever is required. 56: # 57: # Modified 6-Mar-93 by [email protected] to include multiple recipients 58: # 59: 60: trap "" 1 2 3 # req'd since this can run in bg 61: exec 2>/dev/tty # can be "exec 2>/dev/null" 62: 63: nl="" en="" sg="" 64: for i # for each argument... 65: do 66: case "$i" in # look for encryption specifier... 67: # Unclear this will work 68: # *encrypt=*) en="`sed 's/.*=//'`" # this line req'd if SHELL=sh 69: *encrypt=*) en="$en ${i#*=}";; # this line is faster if SHELL=ksh 70: *enc=*) en="$en ${i#*=}";; # this line is faster if SHELL=ksh 71: *sig=*) sg="${i#*=}";; # a pgp signature specification... 72: *) nl="$nl $i";; # a real mail address... 73: esac 74: done 75: 76: [ X = "X$en" -a X = "X$sg" ] && exec /bin/rmail "$@" # not a pgp request 77: 78: [ Xy = "X$sg" -o Xyes = "X$sg" ] && sg="Robert E.
