It is a bug in the manual :-) The plugins are already installed by the main
installer. If you can't find the buttons in Eudora, it is because they are
in a different location than you think they are.
Look next to the "Queue" button. PGP should make this clearer in their docs.
BTW, I am I the only one who's text does't wrap when emailing to UNIX
boxes? I have wrapping turned on...
Great program, though.

Actually the PGP "buttons" don't appear in Eudora unless you are reading a message, replying or creating a new message; which makes sense. Simply retrieving mail won't make the "buttons" appear. With Netscape you must also have the "mailer" maximized or the Netscape Logo will overlap some of the PGP "buttons".
The only thing I would like to see added to it (and perhaps PGP 3.0 will address this) is the ability to En-DeCrypt WIN95 Files folders and files "on the fly" without the necessity of clicking OK for each file like F-Protects' "Secure Desktop" program.
It is plain in "appearance" but a terrific interface, nonetheless, for $29.95 (for 2.6.2 users). Can't wait to see how PGP 3.0 will enhance it's performance.
