Couldn't the #pgp #encryption in @thunderbird@mastodon.online be set so that a user who has not set up their own pgp key can still send encrypted mails to recipients whose key can be retrieved from the #WKD?

@FediVerseExplorer How do you think @Thunderbird: Free Your Inbox should handle this? Should one time key pair be Generated? I think it would break ability to read replies encrypted to such messages.

For encryption only (no signing) the sender doesn't need a keypair.

True, but #Thunderbird has gone to lengths to try and make sure that #e2ee either works completely, or not at all. I don't think they'd be on board with one-way encryption.

I'm not sure if this is the right way to go.

It's risky to allow one-way encryption, since the reply will (likely) quote the email and reveal stuff. Maybe we need Thunderbird to nudge people into enrolling in WKD.

I agree. but sometimes it would be very helpful if users could encrypt sensitive information with one-way encryption without having to deal with pgp setup themselves. With WKD of the receiver, this is relatively easy for inexperienced users to accomplish.

For sending a encrypted E-Mail, only the public key of the recipient is necessary, so far I know.
But Thunderbird dosn't allow to activate encryption, if the sender hasn't a key...
