No. I'm skeptical about hemlis.

No implementation. Do it yourself. Keep it segregated. Gpg4win is great.

If Bitmessage's encryption is broke, how will an extra PGP encryption help? Don't they both use the same encryption algorithm?

The other day I read about OTR, Off-the-Record Messaging, which seems superior to Bitmessage in some ways, but can probably be usefully combined with it. There's a comparison chart on the Bitmessage wiki, but it leaves out the strengths of OTR (perfect forward secrecy and deniability), unjustly making it look inferior.

Off-the-Record Communication, or, Why Not To Use PGP

Wikipedia describes OTR as follows:

The point with OTR is (as also written in the article linked from the previous poster) is that, as far as I understand it, it creates a "temporary secret" used only for one session and discarded afterwards.  This makes it impossible for an attacker in the middle to store the communication and decrypt it later if the private key of one of the users involved is disclosed after the communication.  It also gives deniability unlike PGP where, if a key is compromised, your messages give for instance perfect proof (in court or for whatever reason else) that you actually wrote them (because of your signature).

I'm not sure about an "official client", but there's a library released by the project and it is actively used for instance in Pidgin or Jitsi (also mobile clients are available).  I use Pidgin with OTR for encrypted XMPP chats regularly and it works very, very well.

Note however that I think OTR is much better suited to "instant message like" communication than emails (because it requires a handshake to establish a secure connection, AFAIK), thus I'm not sure how well it would fit to Bitmessage, where sending a message is also quite expensive and takes time because of PoW.

I managed to create a .app/dmg of Bitmessage after I got it to successfully install on my Mac. So far I've had a couple of people report that it works, but feel free to test it out.

The encryption behind BitMessage is solid and adding PGP is entirely redundant.   

The problem with OTR is exchanging the initial public key.  DH does not prevent man in the middle attacks.   The problem with Certificate Authorities is they are only as secure as the weakest link.  Other forms of key exchange are not 'easy to use' and ultimately result in BM style 'address exchange' over an out-of-band channel. 

BitMessage has some weaknesses and the whole address structure, signing key vs encrypting key is ultimately based upon a poor understanding of the possibilities with ECC DH.   I am working on a C++ Qt based enhanced version of BitMessage that solves many of the problems of BM including the addresses and use of ECC that is lower bandwidth and yet more secure.

This will be released as part of beta-testing the P2P network broadcast code behind BitShares.

what are you some sort of russian spy or something?  

what are you going to get life in prison over should your security become compromised?

C'mon, this is the interwebs, do not take everything that is being said that seriously

Mr. bitpop is probably just having some fun here.

Or you could spend life in prison for failing to turn over your keys.

Or perhaps you just don't want your identity stolen.
