From what we know *currently* it seems OK to drop the --log-file argument. However, the problem behind is that without --log-file, you get a mixture of human-readable and machine-parseable output on stderr. You cannot be sure that there is no other way to trick gpg into printing human-readable output that looks like machine-parseable, and thus make Enigmail think the message is signed/encrypted whatever. I therefore recommend you change --log-file XXX to --log-file /dev/null. This should be OK for Enigmail and equally prevent from such attacks. -Patrick
