When I send a message to myself and choose to sign and encrypt, on sending I get a popup to select the keys to which to encrypt the message. My own key is listed on top and it selected. Also on the bottom of the screen both Send encrypted and Send signed are checked. Still the message is sent unencrypted and without asking for a passphrase. The preference extensions.enigmail.encryptToSelf is set to true and I've added both a default-key and default-recipient-self line to my gpg.conf, but to no avail. I'm using Enigmail 1.7.2 on Windows 7 32 bits by the way, with gpg 1.4.11 installed... Onno
