--- Comment #12 from A. Sala <asala at isa.upv.es> ---
At least part of these requests still apply to the version of Kmail shipped in
KDE 4.9.5, as follows:

The issue with "expired signatures" signaled as "bad signature" in red should
be, indeed, better handled (at least yellow, or arguably "green" if signature
valid when the message was received by Kmail --I guess not "time when sent"
because that can be spoofed--). 
I think this is a "bug" because signed messages before expiration are valid
even if the signature later expires. In fact, that is what reporters of bug
295043 think, too. Please update status of either this wishlist and/or the
referred bug accordingly.

So, apart from the other cases, information on expired signatures should be
clearer... I guess "yellow" with extended info such as "warning: public key
expired on 2013/02/04, but was valid at the time of message reception". Maybe a
similar warning with revocations...
