Posted in Kryptografie

I am offering a contact form that supports encryption. So you are able to send me an encrypted e-mail.

This is a screenshot of a message that is encrypted, but not yet sent.
Your name, your e-mail address, and the subject won’t be encrypted. Only the message text will be encrypted.
There are two plug-ins employed: Contact Form ][, and Subrosa.

It may take several seconds to encrypt the message, and you could get a disgusting script warning, so please be patient. In a future version, the contact form should be a little bit more comfortable.
