Hi Jack:

Thanks a lot for testing this issue, this is really helpful!

Now I see a difference between running locally and over X/ssh.  Locally, I see a popup in 
the upper right of the screen with things like "Detected a good signature with 
insufficient validity/trust."  When running over X/ssh I see no such message 
anywhere.

Ok, looks like the same behaviour as I observed with the VM.  However, there 
are *no* hangs as observed by Mario, right?

No popups, not on the console.  I think the "(balsa:3174): GLib-GIO-WARNING **: 
unable to send notifications through org.freedesktop.Notifications: Timeout was 
reached" might be a hint to what is missing.  I suspect some configuration 
difference gives me just that warning, but Mario gets some type of disruptive 
notification.

Afaik, GIO tries to send the notification to the dbus instance /on the machine 
where Balsa is running/, i.e. in the tunnelled case the remote one.  Thus, if 
DBus is running at all, it has no knowledge about the ssh tunnelled X11 
session, so the notification is directed to the completely wrong desktop.  I 
have no idea if DBus can be tunnelled through ssh, too (on my box, it always 
listens on a local unix socket, which ssh cannot forward).  So I agree with you 
that Mario's issue is probably caused by a (DBus?) configuration issue.

I don't think it will be possible to fix it within Balsa, apart from adding a 
config item to disable desktop notifications entirely.

Best,
Albrecht.
