Quoting Kevin Hanser <imp at hanser.org>:

| I was wondering if there was any sort of module for IMP (official or
| unnofficial) that would allow GPG encryption of email messages.  I'd like
| to
| be able to use GPG to encrypt my email, and it would be great if it was
| easily
| integrated into the IMP message composition.  I notice in the FAQ that
| there's
| a mention of optionally using PHP's mcrypt, for more secure encryption.
| What
| sort of encryption does the installation of mcrypt provide?
|
| I've done php programming in the past, but never on something the size or
| scale of IMP... so I'm not sure if I'd be qualified to add something like
| what
| I'm asking, but I might be willing to give it a try.  Does anybody have
| any
| suggestions or guidlines as to what the best way to implement something
| like
| GPG support would be? (if someone hasn't done it already..)

Try CVS HEAD.  It has all sorts of gpg functionality builtin.
