[feature request] Autocrypt support #82

Closed xxxserxxx closed 3 years ago

xxxserxxx commented 3 years ago

Autocrypt is a specification for email clients to negotiate email encryption. For Bower, it'd be adding a header that communicates encryption preferences, and then code to recognize the header and automatically set the encryption preferences for that address. The benefit of this is that it allows per-destination address encryption settings, rather than one global setting.

Autocrypt is supported in a number of email clients, including K-9 (Android), Enigmail, Mutt, Neomutt, and Balsa.

One option would be to not add a config option, but set the Autocrypt header based on whether the user configured PGP settings.

FWIW also mentioned/suggested in #67, just to keep discussion together :).
