           Summary: Replying to encrypted email should default to
                    encryption enabled
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 2.1.0
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: composer
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: kde at mattwhitlock.name


Version:           2.1.0 (using KDE 4.6.3) 
OS:                Linux

It is a serious security risk for replies to encrypted messages to default to
sending in cleartext because such replies usually include quoted text.  When
replying to an encrypted message, the composer should enable encryption of the
reply by default.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Reply to an encrypted message.

Actual Results:  
Composer does not enable encryption by default.

Expected Results:  
Composer enables decryption by default.

I think this is a regression against KMail 1 because I use S/MIME daily and
never noticed a problem before upgrading to KMail 2.
