           Summary: KMail does not ask for GPG password without gpg-agent
           Product: kmail
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: diafero at arcor.de


Version:            (using KDE 4.2.2)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

I can not use the decryption and signing functionality of kmail without having
gpg-agent installed. The very first time after installing KDE4 that I touched
an encrypted message (imported from an old installation), it asked me for a
password (I don't know if it got correctly decrypted then as this "touching"
was marking all messages of a folder as "Ham"). Since then, whenever I want to
view an encrypted message or sign a message I send, it tells me the passphrase
is wrong without even asking me. The configuration window of the OpenPGP crypto
module is empty so I can't change anything there. KGpg can decrypt and sign
messages without problems (it just asks me for the password each time, of
course). After installing and setting up gpg-agent it now works in KMail, too,
but I would really prefer to use it without having to manually set up anything,
especially since that seems to be supported in theory.
