Eduard is Ceata's reimplementation of the Edward reply bot referenced in FSF's Email Self-Defense guide.

It is a GPG troubleshooting script that reads an email from STDIN, checks it for PGP signatures and encryption, then replies appropriately. It is usually called from /etc/aliases.

You can test it by sending a signed and/or encrypted message to eduard@ceata.org.

Features

• Recognises PGP signatures and decrypts encrypted emails. Supports both PGP/MIME and PGP/Inline.
• Encrypts replies when the key is available.
• Imports keys from keyservers or email attachments.
• Can print debug information to standard error or to a logfile.
• Supports keys with passphrases and can use gpg-agent.

Improvements over Edward

• Recognises PGP signatures.
• Uses a MIME library instead of parsing manually. Works properly for any MIME encoding.
• Reports any combination of signed, encrypted, has public key attached.
• Includes raw GnuPG output, for easier troubleshooting.
• Includes a library that can be used by other programs.
• Has documentation and a testsuite.
