This update will convert your current beta version of GPG Mail 3 into a trial
GPG Mail 3 has exited the beta phase and is compatible with macOS High Sierra and macOS Mojave. As we announced about a year ago, we will charge a fee now for continued use of GPG Mail 3 after the trial period of 30 days. Reading your encrypted emails will of course still be possible after the trial period, but you will no longer be able to sign, encrypt and verify emails.
If in that case you would still like to benefit from GPG Suite updates, please download and install GPG Suite 2018.4 directly from our website and customize your installation not to include GPG Mail.
GPG Suite 2018.4
Introducing GPG Mail 3 for macOS Mojave and High Sierra
macOS Mojave is just around the corner and we couldn't be more stoked about telling you, that GPG Mail is ready.
For the best user experience, it is advised to install this release before upgrading to macOS Mojave. Otherwise you will have to manually enable GPG Mail after the upgrade.
For those of you who have been following us for a long time it might not come as much of a surprise, that after almost ten years of developing GPG Suite, we have decided to start charging a fee for continued use of GPG Mail.
After the installation of this update you will be able to test GPG Mail for another 30 days. After the trial period is over, you will still be able to decrypt incoming messages, but in order to verify and encrypt new messages, a GPG Mail Support Plan is required.
We hope you understand our decision and keep supporting us.

macOS 10.14 Mojave Support
- GPG Mail 3 supports macOS 10.14 Mojave from day one. Enjoy secure communication on Apple's latest and greatest (remains to be seen) macOS.
Never have one of them pesky keys expire on you again
- GPG Keychain and GPG Mail will warn you four weeks before your key is about to expire. Never worry about expiring keys again, we've got you covered! Extending your key with one simple click has never been easier.
GPG Mail 3.0
Improvements
- Introduces proper support for PGP-Partitioned messages from PGP Desktop [#991]
Fixes
- Messages that went through MS exchange servers could trigger Mail to crash. This was - by far - our number one crasher and it is now a thing of the past [#977]
- Messages containing only encrypted attachments but not encrypted text were falsely displayed as partly encrypted [#986]
- In some cases, PGP/MIME encrypted and signed message recognized as partly encrypted did not show a signature [#987]
- PGP/MIME messages within a message/rfc822 mime part (inline) were not decrypted [#992]
- Re-added support for embedded filenames [#990]
- Inline PGP messages from Mailvelope were displayed as partly encrypted / partly signed [#989]
- A message's subject line could be manipulated to look like the message was signed when it was not. Credit for this finding goes to Hanno Böck (@hanno) [#1001]
GPG Mail 2.8 (Sierra only)
Fixes
- All fixes from GPG Mail 3 were back ported for version 2.8
GPG Keychain 1.4.5
Improvements
- Inform users of keys about to expire and provide simple option to extend them [#59]
- New password strength indicator - color codes and smarter indicator for password strength [#442]
- Updated message during key generation [#455]
- In order to prevent users from leaking their secret key, if a key pair is exported, the secret key is always listed first. That makes it easier to catch that mistake [#452]
Fixes
- During key creation, only active email addresses are suggested [#446]
- German umlaute were not properly encoded in key searches [#460]
GPG Services 1.11.5
Improvements
- Remember status of "Sign", "Add to Recipients" and "Encrypt with Password" options [#128]
- When a message or file can not be decrypted due to a missing secret key, the error message now shows the key ID of the required key. That makes it much easier to understand why decryption would not work and to determine wether the correct key was used for encryption [#195]
- When a message or file can not be verified because the required public key does not exist, the error message now shows the key ID of the required key [#246]
MacGPG 2.2.10
Improvements
- Updated to GnuPG 2.2.10 [#718]
Fixes
- Using 127.0.0.1 in resolv.conf could prevent dirmngr from resolving the IP addresses of keyservers [#717]
