Howdy, I noticed some problems I have with PGP signed messages from Christian Leutloff and Jim Pick, and a few others not coming from Debian.
My MUA always thinks the message is not pgp signed but encrypted and queries for my PGP passphrase. I've wondered why and have investigated this a little bit. Jim Pick seems to be using mailcrypt. It creates two-part mails, the plain mail text and the signature. Normaly a signature is titled - ----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: <some version of pgp> But mails coming from Jim Pick contain this - ----BEGIN PGP MESSAGE----- Version: <some version of pgp> Comment: Processed by Mailcrypt 3.4, an Emacs/PGP interface Signatures in mails from Christian Leutloff are titled: - ----BEGIN PGP MESSAGE----- Version: <some version of pgp> Actually it's the signature and no pgp encrypted message. This makes my MTA+preprocessor think it's an encrypted message asking for my pass phrase. I think the way the mails are signed is wrong. Could anyone confirm this? If it is a bug, it seems that it's a bug in mailcrypt or so. Jim is using mailcrypt, Christian is also using Emacs, dunno with or without mailcrypt.
