OpenPGP defines all text to + be in UTF-8. A comment may be any UTF-8 string. However, the + whole point of armoring is to provide seven-bit-clean data. + Consequently, if a comment has characters that are outside the + US-ASCII range of UTF, they may very well not survive transport. + + - "MessageID", a 32-character string of printable characters. The + string must be the same for all parts of a multi-part message + that uses the "PART X" Armor Header. MessageID strings should be + unique enough that the recipient of the mail can associate all + the parts of a message with each other. A good checksum or + cryptographic hash function is sufficient. + + The MessageID SHOULD NOT appear unless it is in a multi-part + message. If it appears at all, it MUST be computed from the + finished (encrypted, signed, etc.) message in a deterministic + fashion, rather than contain a purely random value. This is to + allow the legitimate recipient to determine that the MessageID + cannot serve as a covert means of leaking cryptographic key + information. + + - "Hash", a comma-separated list of hash algorithms used in this + message. This is used only in cleartext signed messages. + + - "Charset", a description of the character set that the plaintext + is in. Please note that OpenPGP defines text to be in UTF-8. An + implementation will get best results by translating into and out + of UTF-8. However, there are many instances where this is easier + said than done. Also, there are communities of users who have no + need for UTF-8 because they are all happy with a character set + like ISO Latin-5 or a Japanese character set. In such instances, + an implementation MAY override the UTF-8 default by using this + header key. An implementation MAY implement this key and any + translations it cares to; an implementation MAY ignore it and + assume all text is UTF-8. -- cgit 1.4.1
