Hey all,

Thunderbird/Enigmail seems to have forgotten the passwords to my PGP
keys after an update. Seems simple to fix right? However, I can't copy
and paste them from from GNOME Passwords and Keys into the password
dialogue box as it won't allow me (not via ctrl+v or right click).

They're 50 character randomly generated passphrases, so before I spend
ages typing them out manually, does anyone have any suggestions? 

When I try "Clear Saved Passphrase" I get the error message:
/"You are using gpg-agent for passphrase handling. Clearing the
passphrase is therefore not possible from within Enigmail."

/So obviously it's something to do with the interaction between GNOME
and Enigmail. Anyone have any pointers to save me much annoyance if this
happens again. If I could only copy and paste!

Best regards and thanks to any devs for the amazing software (helping to
make the internet a little safe and more secure)
Leo
