Could we agree on bottom posting on this mailing list?


I assume that the problem is related to not displaying the email
before replying to it (e.g. with the preview pane off). In the case of
PGP/MIME there is not much to do about it, as the message composition
window doesn't know that Enigmail decrypted the mail in question. Such
information is only available if the mail was viewed first; which
allows Enigmail to remember (in the backend) that the mail was decrypted.
