    handling secure attachments in email messages

    Hello,

    We have a processing chain automatically handling email attachments
    in python, which works well. We'd like to add support for encrypted
    files. We're using python 2.3 on HP-UX. I've checked the online 2.5
    documentation, and my understanding is that the standard library still
    only has support for messages digests, not full encryption of content.
    The stock answer seems to be to use the "Python Cryptography Toolkit"
    by AM Kuchlin. It compiled alright on HPUX; I have a .sl extension
    library which I cannot import for some reason. Ideally I'd want PGP
    support/compatibility so senders could submit files with PGP integrated
    to their mail system. Can anyone suggest a module that can help achieve
    this goal? Any pointer or evidence of a working solution with or
    without usage of the aforementioned libraries would be appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Bernard.
