Mulberry & GnuPG

Today I had to install Mulberry – still the best IMAP-client out there :-) – on a fresh Windows 7 install and it took me a while to remember/figure out how to get GPG to work. Export your gpg4win private key/cert using Kleopatra on the old machine and import it on the new one (if you are confused as to where your private key/cert is: importing the private key is enough – it will include the cert and only then prompt for your password). Then, create the following in the registry in “HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\GNU\GnuPG”:

Name Type Data
gpgProgram REG_SZ C:\Program Files (x86)\GNU\GnuPG\gpg2.exe

Restart Mulberry and check at “About Plugins” whether the GPG has been successfully loaded. It’s already included in Mulberry, but will only load if it can find the binary (gpg2.exe) that we just specified in the registry.
