+=item --use-agent
+
+This option lets you use GPG Agent to cache the passphrase of RT's key.
+
+=item --passphrase
+
+This option lets you set the passphrase of RT's key directly. This option is
+special in that it isn't passed directly to GPG, but is put into a file that
+GPG then reads (which is more secure). The downside is that anyone who has read
+access to your RT_SiteConfig.pm file can see the passphrase, thus we recommend
+the --use-agent option instead.
