Preventing users from saving encrypted mail without encryption is certainly a good idea. I would however argue that GnuPG is not the ideal solution to encrypt locally stored e-mails. > As a "workaround", try to right-click the message, pick "Edit as New > Message", then turn off encryption from the toolbar or from the > Options > menu in the Composer window and then File->Save as Draft, after which > you can enter the Drafts folder for the chosen From account and move > the message wherever you'd like to have it stored. Thanks for the tip. I would however prefer a solution which automatically decrypts the mails in a local Maildir directory. Could this be achieved by a script that decrypts all the encrypted mails it finds in the 'cur' folder?
