Hi Olav and Patrick, thanks for the advice. I do have GnuPG 1.4 installed, but Enigmail is configured to use gpg2, which is version 2.0. However, looking through the debugging logs now, I see lots of messages of this kind:
gpg: WARNING: The GNOME keyring manager hijacked the GnuPG agent. gpg: WARNING: GnuPG will not work properly - please configure that tool to not interfere with the GnuPG system! So apparently gpg-agent and the gnome keyring manager don't play well together, somehow. Searching the internets for this message yields a lot of hits, with different advice given, ranging from just stopping GnuPG from complaining [1] to disabling the gpg-agent part of the gnome keyring [2]. As non-expert for the inner workings of Enigmail/GnuPG, I am not sure which of these options (if any) is the right one. After all, Enigmail does fail to sign my emails, so it seems to be more than an annoying, but harmless warning here. Any advice from a more expert perspective? Thanks a lot, Mike [1] https://gebner.org/how-to-get-rid-of-the-the-gnome-keyring-manager-hijacked-the-gnupg-agent-warning.html [2] https://wiki.gnupg.org/GnomeKeyring Am 25.02.2016 um 13:40 schrieb Olav Seyfarth: > Hi Mike, > >> Since upgrading Enigmail, I get error message ... gpg-agent > Enigmail 1.9 needs GnuPG >= 2.x.
