A better approach to security

[jcurl AT arcor.de]

Hello,

I'd like to present a solution that can possibly be documented on the CAcert 
Wiki - how to encrypt emails using Outlook 2010. In general it works, but MS 
have changed their implementation and other clients, such as Thunderbird 
isn't able to decrypt the messages. I've made changes on my local computer 
and can confirm that I can now decrypt messages in Thunderbird with AES-256 
and 3DES (168-bit). I haven't tried other encryption schemes.

I'd like to ask you all, what email clients you have. If you send me a 
"signed" email message and the name of your email client, I would like to 
send you an encrypted email (from Outlook 2010) with a copy of the 
instructions how to configure Outlook (attaching it here results in the 
mailing list rejecting the email due to the size). You'd receive two emails, 
one encrypted as 3DES, another with AES-256.

The content itself isn't secret, it's just that the mailing lists won't 
accept the attachment.

Regards,
Jason
