Hi all, I am running into a usability issue that may be related to those raised in Sept-Oct on this list (subject: "Odd behaviour of Enigmail 1.7.2").
I draft an email to a recipient whose public key I have. I have signing, encryption, and PGP/MIME on by default. I proactively turn off encryption and/or signing, which is verified in the visual cues in the Compose window as well as the Enigmail menu in the Compose window. However when I select Send, the confirmation dialog tells me that the email will be sent encrypted and signed, overriding my very clear instructions with this particular email to be unencrypted/unsigned. And the subsequent email is indeed signed & encrypted, even though I have explicitly set that particular email to be not. I thought the issue might be in Enigmail Preferences --> Sending with the option Automatically Send Encrypted, as the language of the tooltip suggests that only a per-recipient rule can override the setting, versus manually override. However I changed it from If Possible to Never and run into the same issue. This was not an issue with previous Enigmail versions. This is still an issue with the latest nightly release 1.8a1pre. Any guidance appreciated. Thanks, Michael -- Michael Carbone Manager of Tech Policy & Programs Access | https://www.accessnow.org GPG fingerprint: 2DBE 2014 E7B0 0730 303D 7AAB 99AB 0624 6EEB F5A8
