To be precise, that's an error message from GnuPG, not Enigmail. > On this computer, the pubring.bak file isn't showing up in \gnupg > (it doesn't actually seem to exist).

The error may just as well mean that GnuPG could not rename pubring.gpg to pubring.bak (i.e. that pubring.gpg is blocked). This can happen e.g. if there is a hanging process. Please ensure that pubring.gpg is fully accessible to the user; and maybe restart the PC. > This issue resembles a description from thread from 2004[1], so I > was wondering if this is an issue with Enigmail or if it's just > something up with the user's PC - in either case, any advice? It's certainly sure not an issue with GnuPG 1.4 anymore ;-) - -Patrick -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJVsdntAAoJENsRh7ndX2k7NRwP/0TzGXMmeL6KZP7FDs9VJ3SD PO/tR6ugcCT0XpVUDOMEtCz2rsoVreslDr75Y1rw2n2TazRKB1ksXeDZDM2lVo8f 5KjLPkqrukizOCd60UBYz7wuEqHchIwdxeHtHSE9TOmH+yt5hAEsZATIzoyhWd6h 5JVkBaBPWQckqBUfM+UENQclrSD6ETDA8pSn/uimL9HAN94cST/Uiqhrvdbf707j ypiTUv6RigD1yz0L1aO3xP/0BcRBF8hOA/ifNyC6x9XYibbfASY2aMcalkiEtHn9 WeWks4XSeSxXUKA6V7VzqlhWO0igE2bU9vaEZpzCpitTf6PM61opLh7f1DZhmcyN 9Xyuzr9hFju0xGyJ01Tr4jPqrm9mRsCsbQYdsBry77WwxdjEa0fjViF2t9owcsjz qyJ8+FGhcvTcPbGhga+Gayc+pBq5fC7+d83O5/glHh383+c6/OA5ZwyuXtnBXprT 5gXL8Ii3g/x87ADmj0vLaqi5ib34XyOF35B9otnMY7rNKAGIqynS3fud1Zb0a8As zJiA8skRoAlnCp462LJbYpMXTh0NYc4vh19D28SvuS4tILwgUiG678dgf7LWhklX 9uOFYJoyC8nfvjW9pw7BGUSmMlEByAwO5TFG/mVIROrLJRzOTgeywuOXTw6Jax7W 3Vp5j+yQo4ZIMmE1zA7p =HVAg -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ 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
