           Summary: Kmail always sets micalg=pgp-sha1 in gpg header
           Product: kmail
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: encryption
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: joke.de.buhr at seiken.de


Version:            (using KDE 4.3.4)
Compiler:          gcc (Ubuntu 4.4.1-4ubuntu8) 4.4.1 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

Regardless of the hash setting of gpg Kmail always sets "gpg-sha1" within the
header.

Content-Type: multipart/signed;
  boundary="nextPart4603336.7ndxo9qD1E";
  protocol="application/pgp-signature";
  micalg=pgp-sha1

Setting within ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf:
  personal-digest-preferences SHA512
gpg uses sha512 as digest algorithm. Kmail should therefore specify
micalg=gpg-sha512 within the header.

By using the wrong hash setting Kmail breaks signature verification within
Thunderbird's Enigmail extension.
