           Summary: encryption preferences in addressbook not honored when
                    sending emails
           Product: kmail
           Version: 1.13.2
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: smueller at chronox.de


Version:           1.13.2 (using KDE 4.4.2) 
OS:                Linux

The addressbook is able to store encryption preferences for a particular email.
You can list the GPG keys to be used by KMail when encrypting an email to that
email address.

Recently (not sure when), kmail does not honor those encryption settings any
more. I generated addressbook entries for mailing list email addresses with the
GPG keys of the recipients added in the encryption preferences. Now, when
sending an email with encryption enabled to that email address, the standard
window for requesting the selection of the recipient keys pops up instead of
the use of the configured keys. No keys are pre-selected in the window for
requesting the selection of recipient keys.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. add a new entry to the addressbook with, say, an unknown email address (e.g.
foo at bar.com)
2. on the encryption page in the addressbook when editing the foo at bar.com
entry, select some GPG recipient keys (use one or more of the ones you have in
your local key list)
3. write an email to foo at bar.com and select that it should be GPG encrypted
4. hit send

Actual Results:  
the window for requesting the key pops up

Expected Results:  
KMail should have selected the keys you defined in the addressbook immediately

this thing was working in the past
