MR> I can't confirm the problem here. I usually don't cache my passphrase, MR> but I just now tried it out, and everything is working. I sent several MR> types of messages to myself (clear signed, signed and encrypted, MR> PGP/MIME signed, PGP/MIME signed and encrypted). Signing and MR> decryption worked as expected with the cached passphrase. This works for me too, but here's my PGPprefs.txt, from C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\PGP Corporation\PGP Perhaps there's something you can spot?
