[kdepim-users] Cannot get gnupg working with kmail

[Ingo Klöcker]

Hi Praedor,

I'm moving this discussion to the kdepim-users mailing list. (The 
kmail-devel mailing list used to be used for discussions about the 
development, but not usage, of KMail. Nowadays, kmail-devel only 
functions as assignee for older bug reports, so it is basically dead.)

Do I understand correctly that encryption/decryption works only if 
kwatchgnupg is running? Does signing work with/without kwatchgnupg 
running?
