A small hack in PINE (an email tool) to set the MIME content type of
the message to something related to PGP and an entry in the mailcap
file to use a program called "mkpgp1.6" ( a shell script that could
be used to encrypt/decrypt messages in PINE - available on Internet)
to read messages with MIME content type of type PGP, we can integrate
PINE with PGP. Shell script works as the alternate editor of PINE.
