Tiger Envelopes: Tools and components |
Tiger Privacy

Overview
Tiger Envelopes includes source code in every package. We also include third party components that Tiger Envelopes requires. All third party components include source code, or offer a reasonably priced source license.
For maximum security, we recommend that you only use binaries you have compiled yourself. But if the extra step of building from source code would stop you from encrypting your mail, don't hesitate to use the binaries.
Encryption Software
Tiger Envelopes lets you use any email encryption program that has an OCE compatible plugin. Envelopes includes plugins for the most popular encryption programs, BC, GPG and PGP.
We include BC, Bouncy Castle, so you don't have to install another package. But if you already have GPG or PGP installed, Envelopes will use it.
If you would prefer to use another encryption package, please let us know.

Supplied Components
The following components are in the thirdparty folder.
You get both source and binaries. Although you can run Tiger Envelopes from the binaries supplied, if you're a software developer we strongly recommend that you compile all the components that include source for maximum security. Tiger source includes ant builds for most components to make this easier.

The data folder is in the user's home folder and is named Envelopes on Windows and Mac OSX, and .envelopes on Linux. Back up the file options.xml in this folder. Among other things, options.xml contains your passphrases in an encrypted form. If you lose your passphrases, you will not be able to decrypt messages encrypted with those keys.
Under the data folder, public keys created by Tiger Envelopes are in the PublicKeys folder. Messages are archived in the messages folder. Logs are in the logs folder. There are several folders under logs.
