I came up with the following idea.
 
Register a webpage at nekoweb.org, use an API key
and send encrypted messages to the web page, which
later Bob and Alice can decrypt.[...]

 
To decrypt use the default key, except click on the SHA512 radio button,
then click decrypt:

Hi Chris, please reply here in plaintext. I do not have the passwort anymore.

 
Or for further communications, I would prefer that you use my minicrypt too,
because then we do not need to visit the WWW, for encrypted communications.
 
My pub key (save it as stefan.pem):
 
-----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----
tRxoeAmoI+0ygSbUYHBRpbYBDkC9+Q3rSTchzSXFHrU=
-----END PUBLIC KEY-----

Your ciphertext is also longer than minicrypt ciphertext.
 
Your message with your HMAC cipher:

Yeah, I am only representing the ciphertext in hex right now for the
online version. Now, I could modify it to encode the ciphetext in base
64 or something a little more "dense", so to speak... Fwiw, here is a
link to a C based test version, have you seen it yet?

Yes, I remember that and I had compiler errors.

Have you tried my minincrypt yet? It is probably the easiest to
use public key encryption software. ;-)
