the current configuration dialog tries to be both, a first time wizard and configuration editor for adjustments. however, we feel it doesn't really feel nicely usable for either of both.
we should therefore add a real first-time wizard, which also roughly explains the steps it goes through. the current config dialog should then also be redesigned (maybe to use a tabbed interface with less text?).
here's a first draft for a dialog:
Welcome to GpgOL/Web, the GnuPG add-in for Outlook! This wizard will guide you through the initial setup. All of this configuration can be changed at any time. The add-in uses a proxy component for communicating with Outlook. By default it is running as a local service on your computer, but it is also possible to connect to a remote server, if one is available to you. In case you don't know, just say "No" now. Do you want to use a remote server as proxy? [yes] [no] --- # if "yes" Please configure the remote proxy server to use: IP or URL: Port: [Continue] # if "no" run the certificate generation steps -- You can now test whether the proxy setup was successful by opening its test page in a web browser: [Test page] [Continue] --- Finally, the add-in must be registered with Outlook. This is done by uploading its manifest file as a custom add-in to your personal Outlook account, unless this was already done for your organization. In case you don't know, we recommend you choose "Custom add-in" and check the add-ins already available for your organisation for "GnuPG", and only proceed with the manifest upload if it's missing. How du you want to register GpgOL/Web? [Upload custom add-in] [Use organization add-in] --- # if "Upload custom add-in" show manifest stuff and extension manager button --- Configuration is complete! You can now start Outlook and use the add-in. [ok]
