The only requirement is that the first lines that are output are the message info - for example, the first line might be the to address, second line is from address, and third is subject, etc. >2- Will it work on both Macintosh and Windows?Mac right now, windows with very little changes - testing basically.>3- What does 'standard DES' mean?Well, im told by Pacific Coast, that they use a DES style encryption, but its not 'standard' DES which you can get plug-ins, and code for. So with WebCatalog encryption, you have to use either WebCatalog to decrypt, or the eudora plug-in. With standard DES, there are plug-ins for various email, and database engines, as well as source code on the net that you could use.>4- Will it actually work with WebCatalog?We are using it now in place of 'emailer' with no problems to email our orders, and orders for all our hosted clients...>5- What does the client need to decrypt messages?I dont exactly know all the options available, but DES code, and plug-ins are available, so there should be many options. At the least, we will also have a stand alone program that will decrypt these files.Again, this software is still in development, and certainly not complete or polished, im just trying to get an idea of interest in it to see if its worth actually releasing it as a product to the public.
