[Enigmail] Enigmail tries to use old key

[Elias Assmann]

Hi List,

I recently installed Enigmail 1.7.2 (Thunderbird 31.7.0) and imported a
new keypair.  However, it seems that Enigmail is still trying to use an
old keypair.  When editing a new message, trying to send or save a
message, it says:

The email address or key ID '0x09DA19BF' cannot be matched to a valid,
not expired OpenPGP key.
Please ensure that you have a valid OpenPGP key, and that your account
settings point to that key.

The key in question shows up neither in the key manager nor in ‘gpg
--list-keys’.

There are a couple of reports about this error on the web
(https://btw.any.mx/tag/enigmail/
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Thunderbird
http://sourceforge.net/p/enigmail/bugs/306/
http://sourceforge.net/p/enigmail/forum/support/thread/7b5b9936/?limit=25)
but they do not seem to correspond to my issue, and the proposed fixes
do not work for me.

I also tried to add a per-recipient rule for “*” to use my new key, but
that did not work either.

What to do?


Elias

I don't agree with the creation and use of surrogate units like 'stars'.

I would prefer just the statement or statements in plain text as in DKG 
suggestion :

"I think this key is valid" or
"I believe this key belongs to Mary"
