Afterthought...
Phil Zimmermann "invented" PGP quite a few years ago and GnuPG will be celebrating their 11th anniversary soon. I wonder why in this age of "User Friendly, ready to run out of the box" software, there are still programs that demand quite a bit of technical expertise to install and run (command line or third-party interfaces to fill in the gap) and are still problematic to use. When are those people are going to come out of the "dark ages"?
I posted my original question on 4 forums to get as much feedback as possible from GnuPG users but to no avail. I assume that it isn't a very popular program.

Now Simple To Install - Version: 1.4.8, 12/24/2007 12:47PM PST

You MUST read the ReadMe, as ever, before you install. But this version provides a dead simple package installer. It is worth getting the MD5 for the DMG and verifying the installation package has not been altered. Then install away! Read read read to understand how to set everything up once it is installed. But encryption is the future of the Internet, now that everyone wants to spy on us, including our own governments as we head into 'The Late Dark Age' as I call it. But I rant...
Other goodies to get: GPG Keychain Access, GPG DropThing, GPG FileTool, GPG Mail, GPG Preferences. And of course always check back here to see if a new version has been released.
Privacy is a human right. Don't let any fascist scum convince you otherwise.

1) they've put several incomprehensible and incompatible/error-producing pieces of software on my machine, and
2) they've rendered Mail.app non-functional.
nothing else appears to have been achieved; certainly nothing i can understand (and i'm a Mac power user with 20+ years experience).
i'd like to uninstall the software; i hope i can figure out how to do so, but have not yet encountered the word "uninstall" in my perusal of the poorly-written and grossly incomplete documentation.
evidently there just is no user-friendly email security for the Mac. tried CryptoHeaven, but that's its own ugly email client; i don't want an email client; i have an email client. i just want to secure the messages i send and receive with the client i already have.
*sigh*
