So I finally did the upgrade to Snow Leopard last night, and overall Eudora
6.2.4 still works fine. The only piece that I've found that's not working
yet is that the PGP Services items for encrypt/sign/decrypt don't show up
anymore in the Services menu. I had to re-enable them globally in the new
Services System Preferences section, and then they show up in apps like
BBEdit and the like, but they still don't show up in Eudora. I only see
the services that relate to "Pictures" when I have text selected.

For now I'm just using the manual Sign/Encrypt/Decrypt clipboard actions
using the PGP Desktop application itself. I might have to write an
Automator-based Service later. Maybe the new version of PGP that's coming
out will fix the problem too, but the fact that Eudora doesn't see any
Text-based Services kind of leads me to believe the problem lies somewhere
in that direction.

I'm using PGP Desktop 9.9.1. Anyone else in the same boat?

I don't have a paid copy of PGP, so I wouldn't get PGP services
regardless, but I'm seeing the same thing in Eudora 6.2.4 with Snow
Leopard that you are. Under the Eudora Services menu is a Services
preferences... item. Adding text services in the preferences doesn't
work. :-(
