I'm reflecting on how to describe an RFE about OpenPGP headers. I have tested one case where gnupg is not going to collect a key (gpg.conf keyserver setting removed) AND enigmail's keyserver preference is set for automatic download, the key for decrypting an email is NOT on my keyring AND the public key is NOT on a keyserver.
When I try to open the mail, there is a delay of several seconds before the decrypted text is displayed. During that time, I imagine, enigmail was attempting to download the key with no success. But no specific error message was displayed at this point. The yellow enigmail header (unverifed signature) is displayed and the Details button provides 3 options : import key, security info display and copy. If I click on the import key, after a few seconds, an enigmail alert is displayed saying that no key was imported. This is correct. But I think that error message should have appeared earlier when the automatic key search was completed. Philip
