Description Florian Berger 2008-03-14 08:18:08 UTC 
mail-client/ciphire-mail depends on the service of the Ciphire Labs AG, which offers remotely verified email en-/decryption.
Their website announces that the public free service has been closed down and that all users have been notified.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
I am not a Ciphire user though, so I can't tell whether it can still be used (maye for some time).



Since the message on https://www.ciphire.com/index.html looks discouraging, mail-client/ciphire-mail should be considered for removal.
