Hi Nico,

Looks good at first glance.  Time will tell how it performs.

I find this explanation a little difficult to understand but what I take from
what you have written is the following :

In the account specific settings of Thunderbird, in the OpenPGP Options, if I
select (tick) the check box 'Automatically sign finally non-encrypted messages'
this action will be applied as an final (ultimate) action after all other
defaults/rules/manual settings have been applied.

So if all other actions work to declare that a particular email should not be
signed, then this option will ensure that it is signed anyway.

But an initial test proves that it doesn't work that way.  If in the write
window, I select OpenPGP/Message will be signed/Force not to sign :  then the
message is sent unsigned.

So it seems that I have misunderstood your quoted text above.  Perhaps it is the
use of the word 'finally' that is ambiguous ?

Perhaps we could suggest something more clear if you say what message you
intended to convey.

Best regards,
Philip

ps.  for this message, it should be signed by default.  My initial attempt at
clicking the send button produced an error "Bad pass phrase" "send failed".

I wasn't even invited to enter a passphrase.  So I have disabled signing to get
this message away.  I don't yet understand if this is an effect of the latest
nightly build.
