 * Hi. Love this whole plugin thing.
    Works up to the point that I am in GMAIL trying
   to open the message. The errror is: Error! Could not read this encrypted message:
   Error: Unknown ASCII armor type
 * I don’t even get a window to put in the password. Do you have any ideas?
 * Thanks.

 * You’ll need to provide more details than that. What OpenPGP client are you using?(
   Mailvelope?) What version? What browser? Etc.

 * It looks like there is a compatibility problem between several OpenPGP implementations.
   [This is being tracked for WP PGP Encrypted Emails users on GitHub](https://github.com/meitar/wp-pgp-encrypted-emails/issues/9),
   so I’m marking this resolved for now and will eventually release an update that
   fixes this issue once the fixes are upstreamed to the libraries being used.
