Existing users, 
i hate this crap that sits on versiontracker promising useful functionality and a GUI and turns out to be created for UNIX geeks. i've run two installers that have accomplished the following:
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*

BRILLIANT! - zunipus
I've been using GPG for years now and have had nothing but success. It is most impressive. It is also FREE. Thank you to the developers! And thank you to all those who have provided terrific add-ons!I have not had trouble getting it to work. But it has a learning curve. That means you do indeed have to commit yourself to RTFM as with any complicated software.
If you don't RTFM then sorry, you won't understand the software and you won't be able to use it. And you WON'T be qualified to write dopey 'SUCKS' reviews here at VT either. I'm sorry you did. You may well have deterred people from using one of the GREATEST of Open Source tools provided under GNU.

sucks [not] - leoofborg1
Obviously this user needs to pony up the $$$ at pgp.com and get the clicky clicky installer version. Or learn how to read.GPG *is* a Unix tool made MUCH more simple by the macgpg folks. Kudos to them.
Note to the user: read the fine manual, it seems to work for everyone else.
