Date: Sat, 9 Dec 1995 13:08:53 -0800 To: cypherpunks@toad.com From: anonymous-remailer@shell.portal.com Forwarded message. From: investor@flood.xnet.com (Investortools) Newsgroups: alt.security.pgp Subject: warning about PMail-PGP Date: 9 Dec 1995 00:47:46 GMT Organization: XNet - A Full Service Internet Provider - (708) 983-6064 Lines: 5 Message-ID: <4aambi$e33@flood.xnet.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: cyclone.xnet.com X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL2] I just installed the "Open Encryptor" PGP interface for Pegasus Mail. I found that when you sign a message and queue it, it stores your password in the clear on the hard drive. Apparently it doesn't sign or encrypt the message until just before transmitting it. So it stores your PGP private key password with the message until it sends it.
