Because what see as root of the error is in my view either thunderbird or the enigmail extension, i cannot clearly say so. The way i saw it that thunderbirds recieves the mail. Thunderbird or the enigmail extension decide to decrypt a mail. gpg is called, wants to know the passphrase and uses pinentry through gpg-agent to ask for the passphrase. But why does thunderbird ask for a mail when its not even visible for me? That means some routine has decided to call gpg -d and then the whole thing of pinentry gets started. That is for "why is a popup window opened (gpg called) when there is a open pop-up window?" Also unnessary call of gpg -d - or how you see that - is when i have a mail for example from facebook that gets filtered into a subfolder. We will see more web service providers sending gpg mail in the future and thats a good thing. But those mails are typically good examples of "i look in there when i have to" This sum's up into "don't decrypt a mail if the user cannot see it anyway". And as i understand the decision of decrypting a mail - always when it comes in - is made in enigmail, not in gpg itself, that is just called. > If you want this to change, suggest it on GnuPG-Users.

Yeah, i am maybe really bad in explaining the problem. mc.fly .... -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJVqRwJAAoJEEE9flqUyHM6rdYP/25VN9MqekZuJVRF/KdzDFxW G4Xv+yHcWJmCwIC0YHYcCS0kCtEkSm0AHvCaVE0ZC757GR9U7nownlW2n1kbbUMU 2jVhQb8+XYHfVVSygcG3ii0j58lh30Tz1+Z+6Xxw+BNP+yeN9dqVI7AHnj0P/SKH Bc98R1SqabekWmGY/P40+H8qZkiZplA6744Jfw+B+ARi15qOJJ/pkWFfNfi711zW MDoyTKhs9EBsisJeG4qCUNqr1hjjnsNteWOW4TUzd0KdjNOMt3BgF1upSjbLj8Ll YeZ+neKcEc7n+wtw2eG2wPLXVFDE0XF8W38pmjhhJlZL8+meYWmi6BfoY2elhVxQ mE4D4+QXZJ0k/l/ZmAKfKHK0mnFMqZ2DIzQ3dKuBgmKmf3T5MxKu9vVaoknhE48/ /30Nid/JDOaqmu9NQoZdxw0tdIdhv2oyf55xQ+ZHxvYfFjEx2N7A8iMHvI20ZYqh wPvcU58/rbb5m/T2REUHLlRnmfc2HqyJgx9DnIQ5UMh9ecsUEjpmU6scp9XJMQdG IdkyW/aDNuuuflck+GVromxYNAx52rHlKnXJTxVnPsDBUX0q0v/H4oHBWqm9RPaf 5It7ObXx5AAxcWQ4dDkUgjZr6Bk7oGFB3lSM7ThmKpuPSzifV786KOFf650O5erf aTLrhPXBjKzwfJpePbR8 =b/tJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ enigmail-users mailing list enigmail-users@enigmail.net To unsubscribe or make changes to your subscription click here: https://admin.hostpoint.ch/mailman/listinfo/enigmail-users_enigmail.net
