Dear Maintainer,

when I receive a PGP-inline encrypted mail, claws-mail-pgpinline fails to unlock my private PGP key. It doesn't ask me to input my passphrase, instead it shows "Entschlüsseln schlug fehl: Falsche Passphrase" (encrpytion failed: wrong passphrase).

When I use e.g. Evolution to decrypt the mail, it unlocks my PGP key using seahorse. The key stays unlocked for some time. While the key is unlocked in seahorse, I can re-open the mail in claws-mail and it is decrypted alright.

claws-mail-pgpinline should know a way to ask for your passphrase to decrypt encrypted messages, either via seahorse/GNOME system dialogs or locally.

Cheers
  Michael

Hi Michael,

Do you have “Use gpg-agent to manage passwords” checked in Plugins/GPG panel
of your Configuration/Preferences dialog?

regards,

I'd say it's a problem with gpg-agent, not with Claws Mail itself. Since I
don't use it myself I cannot tell you much, maybe review gpg-agent docs to
see if something has changed in newer versions which you may need to adjust
in your configuration.

If you find something please let me know. Otherwise I guess we can close
this report.

Thanks for your feedback,

P.S.: you send my the above response only to my address; please do not remove
bug address when replying, makes it harder to me to track bugs ;-)
