<p dir="auto">Oliver, thanks for looking at my problem. More details follow. That said I sense the answer to my question is “Nope there isn’t…”</p>
<p dir="auto">I get emails from many vintage correspondents who sign all their emails. That triggers MailMate to complain it can’t find the /usr/local/bin/gpg. That opens pops top off a barrel of monkeys and a flash back to having solved this in past lives.</p>
<p dir="auto">So things come to mind…</p>
<ol>
<li>“Gpg” eh? What about “gpg2” … my memory is that last time I did this I used gpg2.</li>
<li>“/usr/local/bin” eh? I thought the brew folks moved to /opt/homebrew/bin on Apple Silicon.</li>
<li>I seem to remember solving this, at last once, with a symbolic link to where I found gpg installed, but that was a longtime ago.</li>
<li>I did happen upon a posting in this mailing list, maybe a year (or two) old that mentions setting an environment variable to help guide Mailmate to this exceubable.</li>
</ol>
<p dir="auto">4a. Of course mailMate runs as a child/spawn, of launchd. Luck me I already know how to set environment variable in launchd for this kind of thing.<br>
4b. Then I found an email that mentioned using “defaults set” to inject this info into mailmate<br>
defaults write com.freron.MailMate environmentVariables -array '{enabled = :true; name = "MM_GPG"; value = "/opt/homebrew/bin/gpg"; }'<br>
5. I don’t see info. About this in recent mailing list content.</p>
<p dir="auto">So at point I seemed reasonably to ask if this was written down someplace.</p>
<p dir="auto">If not, I’ll just kick it until something works :)</p>

<p dir="auto">I hadn’t actually tried it since I started using MailMate, since PGP doesn’t come along too often for me these days. So I was curious, I tried it and it works correctly. This is an M4 Mac, so unless you’re referring to a problem specific to the M2 I wonder what it is?</p>

<p dir="auto">I’m moving over to a new M2 Mac. So PGP encryption stopped working.</p>
<p dir="auto">I see plenty of discussion about this the archives of this esteemed mailing list.</p>
<p dir="auto">Is this documented some place? - ben</p>
