My problems are gone now that I (only) removed seahorse from my system (so it really looks that it has a bug). Enigmail is also able to remember my passphrase.
I found this discussion [1] at enigmail forum, someone having the same problem [1]http://www.mozilla-enigmail.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=421 -- seahorse asks twice for gpg key password https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/246364 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to seahorse in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
