# FairEmail
|
||||
|
||||
[FairEmail](https://email.faircode.eu/) is a free and open-source email client for
|
||||
[Android](/wiki/android.md).
|
||||
|
||||
## Setup
|
||||
|
||||
On [Android](/wiki/android.md) FairEmail is available on [F-Droid](/wiki/android/f-droid.md) in a
|
||||
package called [FairEmail](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/eu.faircode.email/).
|
||||
Additionally it is available on the[Google Play store](/wiki/android.md#app-store) in a package

## Usage
|
||||
|
||||
This section addresses the usage of FairEmail.
|
||||
|
||||
### Use PGP Key for Encryption, Decryption and Signing
|
||||
|
||||
FairEmail can use [OpenPGP](/wiki/openpgp.md) to sign, encrypt or decrypt mails.
|
||||
To achieve this download [OpenKeychain](https://www.openkeychain.org/).
|
||||
To connect FairEmail with OpenKeychain navigate to the settings and select `Encryption`.
|
||||
There the provider of OpenPGP (`OpenPGP provider`) can be set to OpenKeychain
|
||||
(`org.sufficientlysecure.keychain`).
|
||||
Using OpenKeychain PGP keys can then be imported and stored.
|
||||
|
||||
After this is done outgoing mails can be encrypted by signed or encrypted by selecting the
|
||||
`Encrypt` selection on the top bar when writing emails.
|
||||
|
||||
Decryption can be done by clicking on the padlock when inside an email that is encrypted.
|
||||
|
||||
Additionally in the settings under `Encryption` the signing (`Sign by default`), encryption
|
||||
(`Sign and encrypt by default`), decryption (`Auomatically decrypt messages`) and validation
|
||||
(`Automatically verify signed messages`) can be set to occurr automatically.
