Right, but that's a bug in *GnuPG* -- not in Enigmail. GnuPG should ignore revoked and expired keys when trying to figure out which key to use for encryption. If GnuPG reports that the two keys are ambiguous then there is not much Enigmail can do about. > This error happens if someone creates a new key and keeps the old > one, what should be a usual situation.
