Seahorse integration

Seahorse is a GNOME application for managing PGP keys. It also integrates with nautilus, gedit and other places for encryption, decryption and other operations.

Because Seahorse isn't available on all target platforms of tinymail, tinymail will not like a hard dependency on it. Therefore will the work, involved in creating such integration, include thinking about how we can abstract asking PGP functionality in such a way that it's easy (as in, a pluggable component) to let an E-mail client start using the Seahorse for this.

If you are interested, join the mailing list and let's talk about it! The tinymail maintainer has the word "strategy" in his mind. But he's open for suggestions and other ideas.

Take a look at this page as it illustrates the current idea for supporting both mime-parts like PGP keys (which are to be handled by for example Seahorse) and mime-parts like ".ics" files (which are to be handled by for example a calendaring or PIM application like Dates).
