That's one of the main problems with gmail, IMHO.

Please be more precise!

The encryption is still secure.
The attack works because of *not good* gpg/smime implementation in the
mail clients.

The bottom line for me is, don't use HTML emails!
Plaintext mails are still secure, IMHO.

You can read the full statement from the gpg developer at this link

https://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnupg-users/2018-May/060315.html

I find it gross negligence from eff to tell everyone

*don't use encryption in e-mails*

nowadays.

This is OT here so sorry for the rush but I think this efail
*scandal/hype*
needs to bring down to a rational discussion.
