mailenc
Does your encrypted email actually work?
mailenc is a free tool that lets you test PGP email encryption end-to-end by sending an encrypted email to a one-shot address and receiving an encrypted echo report back. It verifies key discovery via WKD, Autocrypt, and HKPS, checks signature verification, and tests PGP/MIME envelope handling. Results stream live into the browser tab in real time.
You send a PGP-encrypted email to a one-shot address, and mailenc verifies the envelope, looks up your public key via WKD, Autocrypt, and HKPS, then mails an encrypted echo report back while streaming live results to your browser.
