This fact remember something happened recently the very first
time with a student of mine: because I do not know it the guy in
question had subscribed the muLinux mailing-list, I will explain
the story here, but using the IDEA one-way traditional algorithm,
i.e. no public-key is required, but only passphrase.
You can use PGP to decrypt, using the passphrase "mulinux".
Is is true: this is my first real usage of the IDEA cryptography.
(Ok, in this case this is not true "cryptography", but a sort
of "steganography", or "cryptography against the baby" :-) )
I would like to ask to Lars Nordstrom, own crypto-guy on the list,
if there is a simple way to generate a key for the address
so every subscriber can read/send PGP encrypted message. How
to handle a such mechanism? What kind of hand-shake is required
beetween us, the subscribers?
The IDEA rapresentation of the "student's story" follow.
I obtained it with the "pgp -ca" command, out of Mutt (maybe
another macro to add to?)
