I also think the message composition toolbar is a great usability improvement.

This is one of the most common actions that new users *should* take, since their correspondents don't have their key yet. I've hesistated in the past to ask people to send me their key because i didn't want to have to ask them to dig in the menu. This makes it much esier. >> And given that most of my messages are unsigned and unencrypted I >> find the big red message to be ... offputting to say the least.

I see this as comparable to browsers degrading the UI for http: http://www.chromium.org/Home/chromium-security/marking-http-as-non-secure This is entirely a good thing. The red warning will go away if you encrypt, even if you don't sign. If we don't want to encourage routine signing, maybe the warning could stay red as long as it's unencrypted? Or maybe it could be: "This message will be signed <red>but is not encrypted</red>" ? --dkg _______________________________________________ enigmail-users mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe or make changes to your subscription click here: https://admin.hostpoint.ch/mailman/listinfo/enigmail-users_enigmail.net
