[Gpg4win-devel] How to best explain what Gpg(OL)4win does

Hi,

I know that this is an impossible question. But I have the following problem:

In our Outlook plugin I want to show unsigned mails as less secure then any 
signed mail. So we have a question mark button with the caption "Insecure" 
showing for any unsigned mail.

For technical reasons the space we take up for this is in the menu. So it is a 
button. Now my question to you is: What do you think should happen when you 
click that button?

For non GpgOL users. Here is the context:
https://heinecke.or.at/div/insecure-button.gif

I'm looking for both links to existing information and ideas about the general 
content / UX that could be made available with this button. This might be a 
users first contact with Gpg4win / GpgOL so I kind of want to "explain" what we 
do.

Currently we open the FSF email security flyer [1]. This is bad because the 
website might not be acessible from internal networks. It links explanations 
for other MUA's etc. So we should replace it. But with what?


Best Regards,
Andre
