A package for signed and encrypted MIME messages. It currently supports PGP/MIME via GnuPG and S/MIME via OpenSSL.

Proper kryptography requires security audits of the complete system. Even though the author is not aware of any bugs in this software, it comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY. USE THIS SOFTWARE AT YOUR OWN RISK.

This is a simple example of how to use kryptomime:

>>> from kryptomime import create_mail, GPGMIME
>>> import gnupg
>>> gpg = gnupg.GPG(home='gpghome')
>>> krypto = GPGMIME(gpg,default_key=('foo@bar.com','passphrase'))
>>> msg = create_mail('foo@bar.com','bar@fnord.net','subject','body\nmessage')
>>> sgnmsg,results = krypto.sign(msg)
>>> verified, results = krypto.verify(sgnmsg)
>>> rawmsg,signed = krypto.strip_signature(sgnmsg)
>>> encmsg,results = krypto.encrypt(msg,sign=True)
>>> verified, results = krypto.verify(encmsg)
>>> decmsg, verified, results = krypto.decrypt(encmsg)
