3. Outlook 2010 Support for GpgOL
The groundwork was done to integrate GpgOL with Outlook 2010 and later versions. On this basis a minimal set of actions has been implemented to make some Gpg4win features acessible directly from Outlook:
- There is now a GpgOL ribbon in Outlook 2010. Containing at least a shortcut to the certificate management and other actions depending on the Context.
- When reading a mail you can decrypt the complete message body from the GpgOL ribbon.
- When reading a mail you can decrypt parts of a message from the text selection context menu.
- When writing a mail you can encrypt / decrypt parts of your message from the text selection context menu.
- When writing a mail you can encrypt / decrypt the full message body from the GpgOL ribbon.
- When recieving an attachment you can select to save and decrypt it from the attachment context menu.
The new GpgOL version 1.1.4 is integrated into Gpg4win 2.2.0-beta release.
