G'day,

Testing out my S/MIME certificate I decided to send myself an email from
evolution. I have correct GPG details in my account (They migrated fine from
1.4), and I added a S/MIME certificate from thawte.

I selected both PGP sign, and S/MIME sign on the security menu.
When I received my email, initially only the S/MIME certificate would verify.
I selected another email, then I selected my GPG & S/MIME signed email.

Evolution then displayed the following bright red message.


Error verifying signature
Failed to GPG verify: Broken pipe

gpg: armor header: Version: GnuPG v1.2.5 (GNU/Linux)
gpg: CRC error; 66311d - dc3663
gpg: quoted printable character in armor - probably a buggy MTA has been used


The S/MIME signiture is still good, but the GPG is corrupt.

G'day

I've done some further testing and found the following:

PGP Sign Only = No Problems
PGP Sign + PGP Encrypt = No Problems
PGP Sign + S/MIME Sign = Broken PGP Sign*
PGP Sign + S/Mime Encrypt = No problems
PGP Encrypt Only = No Problems
PGP Encrypt + S/MIME Sign = Broken PGP Encrypt*
PGP Encrypt + S/MIME Encrypt = No Problems
S/MIME Sign Only = No Problems
S/MIME Sign + S/MIME Encrypt = No Problems
S/MIME Encrypt Only = No Problems

*Error message from broken PGP Sign is:

Error verifying signature
Failed to GPG verify: Broken pipe

gpg: armor header: Version: GnuPG v1.2.5 (GNU/Linux)
gpg: CRC error; 66311d - dc3663
gpg: quoted printable character in armor - probably a buggy MTA has been
used


*Error message from broken PGP Encrypt is:

Could not parse S/MIME message
gpg: armor header: Version: GnuPG v1.2.5 (GNU/Linux)
gpg: CRC error; 309b67 - dc3309
gpg: quoted printable character in armor - probably a buggy MTA has been
used

Hi!

Last year you submitted a bug related to evolution:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=277516

Can you still reproduce this bug with version 2.0.3 (latest in Sarge and
Sid) ?

Thanks!

G'day

Sorry about the delay. It takes awhile to upgrade evolution and it's
dependancys on dialup.

I ran my tests again with the following results:


PGP Sign Only = No Problems
PGP Sign + PGP Encrypt = No Problems
PGP Sign + S/MIME Sign = Broken PGP Sign*
PGP Sign + S/Mime Encrypt = No problems
PGP Encrypt Only = No Problems
PGP Encrypt + S/MIME Sign = No Problems
PGP Encrypt + S/MIME Encrypt = No Problems
S/MIME Sign Only = No Problems
S/MIME Sign + S/MIME Encrypt = No Problems
S/MIME Encrypt Only = No Problems

*Error message from broken PGP Sign is:
Error verifying signature
Failed to GPG verify: Broken pipe

gpg: armor header: Version: GnuPG v1.2.5 (GNU/Linux)
gpg: CRC error; 9bbae5 - dc39bb
gpg: quoted printable character in armor - probably a buggy MTA has been
used

So it appears the problem with PGP Encrypt + S/MIME Sign has been fixed.

No Problems. Thanks for looking into this.

Hola Jamie Jones!

Ok, you say PGP because the menu says PGP, but it's actually using gpg,
right?  I guess it is because of the error message, but I want to be sure.

Ok, thanks for the input, I'll see if I can find a fix to this, although I
don't think it'll be trivial.
