I then sent a encrypted and signed test message from postmas...@gbenet.com to site-ad...@gbenet.com The email arrived and I could read it - I had no need to decrypt it because it was signed and encrypted to postmas...@gbenet.com I then decided to reply - it selected postmasters key but refused to sign the email - I entered the passphrase three times all by hand the same result. Puzzled by this - I decided to take the checkbox out of picking the right key for the email accounts of postmas...@gbenet.com and site-ad...@gbenet.com I decided to send just an encrypted email to postmas...@gbenet.com from site-ad...@gbenet.com "I can't find the key" even though I had selected the key - h.. I tried then to just send a signed reeply to postma...@gbenet.com not encrypted - the dialogue box popped up to enter the passphrase for site-ad...@gbenet.com - again it refused to accept the passphrase for site-ad...@gbenet.com Oh and I created a new key pair for da...@gbenet.com which are completely useless. I tried with all three keys - the only key to work is my postmas...@gbenet.com which I've used in Thunderbird and Enigmail for over 20 years. And after each of these config changes in Enigmail and Thunderbird I shut down Thunderbird deleted all the caches and rebooted my laptop. The results were all consistent: Enigmail will only work with ONE Key. It does not recognise any other key than the first key that was created. I'd like to use my da...@gbenet.com key here - some ages ago complained I was using postmas...@gbenet.com's key to sign emails. I thought it woulld be a good idea to have a key for this email account. BUT I can not use it - I can not sign emails. You moan - but offer no solutions. I can think of only one possible solution that will work delete site-admin's key pair - delete david's key pair and go back to what Thunderbird and Enigmail are happy with one key pair from postmas...@gbenet.com To be frank your comments are just like a bad fart - then they go away. You don't think perhaps can not think - your not too smart as to offer any solution.

One can not only configure one PGP key per account (of which there can be many), one can even configure one key per identity. Each TB account can have multiplie identities; one of Thunderbird's killer features as far as I am concerned. Why you would lambast Enigmail for a non-problem, caused by you not configuring things properly, is beyond me. -Ralph ___ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users

Regarding multiple key, I don't know what you mean, sorry. When I send messages (online) in the past with Claws-Mail I only send to single individuals. If you mean multiple keys for yourself, I never checked this, but assume then you may need also individual accounts in Claws-Mail for multiple keys.

I now simply deleted the offending cross-certificate via gpgsm --delete-key 0x61A8CF44 and now gpgsm happily accepts the new root cert. So, removal of an expired signature makes the chain valid. Shouldn't gnupg the just ignore the expired signature? I went further now, deleting the root cert itself: gpgsm --delete-key 0x17D894E9 But I figure that this does not matter at all, as dirmngr has it. I now fail to understand where the cross-signature came from. I don't see it in the certificate file I exported from Firefox (browser-based certification process). I don't see it in the root certificate file that is offered separately for download. As I still have a backup of my .gnupg folder, can I trace where the cross-signature entered the picture? And even with it present, is it correct behaviour for gpgsm to consider the chain invalid instead of just the cross-signature? It _does_ trust the new root cert already … no need for any further signature. Regards, Thomas PS: Just for fun, I'm trying to sign this post now.
