Hmmm... This means there is some configuration problem on my part. I checked my default settings. "Evolution Preferences" -> "Composer Preferences" -> "General" I see, under "Replies and Forwards", "Wrap quoted text in replies" was checked as the system/vendor default. This looks like the culprit which wrapped lines to break voting mail. Thanks. Osamu

That's (as it states) a historical holdover: "some people receive the lists via packet radio, where swearing is illegal." I can't recall a case of listmaster@ actually enforcing the prohibition of profanity, and I'm unaware of anyone actually using packet radio for receiving listmail anymore.

Indeed, in Belenios, the credential authority and the server have the opportunity to connect *encrypted* ballots with voters, but there is no known way to connect voters with their plaintext choices. > [...] the current scheme using pseudonym hashes is > almost good enough, it just lacks a way to prove that each pseudonym > really matches with exactly one voter.

Re: "gr_rms" worked with mutt+gpg+ssh+sendmail (Evolution is difficult)
Hi, I finally voted. Kurt was right. My initial confusion about UI of Evolution created mail without signature. (Evolution signature menu is not for PGP sign) Also Jessica was right. Evolution PGP sign seems fragile and it doesn't work (Maybe I should have used S/MIME sign) My solution -- get back to good old working method. * Export to mbox from Evolution for ballot paper. * Read it from mutt. * Create reply on mutt * Send it from mutt with SSH/sendmail using send2-hook I may try S/MIME next time ... Thanks Osamu

Hi Osamu, I've replied privately to the mail you've sent to secretary, but I'm not sure that you saw it. I see that you attempted to vote again, and that you got the same error. Your 3 messages for the RMS GR were not signed, while your mail to the DPL election was signed. The error message contained: gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found. Which is almost always that there is no signature. Please make sure that you actually sign the email. There is no permission problem, nor a problem that the vote is over. Other people are able to vote. Kurt
