Package: claws-mail-pgpinline
Version: 3.11.1-3

For e-mail in Sent folder, claws reports "Couldn't decrypt: Decryption failed".
If I save the encrypted attachment and then do a "gpg --decrypt <filename>"
then gpg reports
"gpg: decryption failed: secret key not available"
No feedback yet from recipient as to whether he was able to decrypt.

This is not a bug: you need to encrypt to both recipient's public key
and your own public key.
Using only recipient's public key means you need recipient's secret key
to decrypt it, which you, obviously, don't have, hence the message.
See https://www.gnupg.org/gph/en/manual.html#AEN111 for how this works.
Closing,
