The component allows for any user defined value to be set. This let's you customize the PGP message to identify your application as the originator. To specify your own value simply set the "VersionHeader" configuration setting like so:
//C#
Key key = new Key("C:\\MyKeyring", "myuser@mail.com");
key.Passphrase = "password";
pgp.Keys.Add(key);
pgp.InputMessage = "hello world";
pgp.Config("VersionHeader=My Application");
pgp.ASCIIArmor = true;
pgp.Sign();
String encryptedMsg = pgp.OutputMessage;
This will result in a message like:
