}}GPGMail is an extension for Apple Mail that provides public key email encryption and signing. GPGMail works under macOS and the actual cryptographic functionality is handled by GNU Privacy Guard.[2]

GPGMail was first released on February 7, 2001, by Stéphane Corthésy, and since 2010 is maintained by GPGTools. GNU Privacy Guard is free open-source software, but use of GPGMail now requires purchase of a support plan.[3]

On September 21, 2018, the developer introduced GPGMail 3.0 as a part of GPG Suite 2018.4, a new software release that included support for macOS Mojave. In this release, the developer removed the free license option for GPGMail. A lot of users that relied on automated upgrades were caught by surprise, which prompted a significant backlash from the community. While the licensing change was identified in the release notes for GPG Suite 2018.4, many believed that such a big change required a more prominent notification to avoid the perception of "bait and switch".[4]
