Outlook
GnuPg plug-ins are also available for MS Outlook. We have carried a plug-in called GDATA on our this month's PCQ Essential CD. This package contains the GnuPg binary commands and the plug-in for Outlook. Its installation is very simple. You need to just run the setup program and follow the instructions. At one point it will ask you if you want to install only the plug-in or the GnuPg binaries as well. Select as your requirement and a new option called GnuPg Key Managment will be added in the Tool menu. From here you can create, manage and delete your key pairs.

Eudora
To use GNUPg with Eudora, you have to first download the zipped package from http://heanet.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/winpt/eudora-gnupg-plgin2.0rc1. zip and unzip them. You will then get some dll files in the extracted folder. Copy the file called EudoraGPG-en.dll to the plug-in folder where your Eudora is installed. By default, the location is C:\ProgramFiles\Qualcomm\Eudora\plug-in. Now restart Eudora and you will find a new sub-menu called Message Plug-in in the Edit menu. Here you will find all the tools for using GPG with Eudora.
