      <p>Eduard is Ceata's reimplementation of the Edward reply bot referenced in <a href="https://emailselfdefense.fsf.org">FSF's <i>Email Self-Defense</i> guide</a>.

      <p>It is a GPG troubleshooting script that reads an email from STDIN, checks it for PGP signatures and encryption, then replies appropriately. It is usually called from <code>/etc/aliases</code>.

      <p>You can test it by sending a signed and/or encrypted message to <a href="mailto:eduard@ceata.org">eduard@ceata.org</a>.

	<h3>Features</h3>
	<ul>
	  <li>Recognises PGP signatures and decrypts encrypted emails. Supports both PGP/MIME and PGP/Inline.
	  <li>Encrypts replies when the key is available.
	  <li>Imports keys from keyservers or email attachments.
	  <li>Can print debug information to standard error or to a logfile.
	  <li>Supports keys with passphrases and can use <code>gpg-agent</code>.
	</ul>

	<h3>Improvements over Edward</h3>
