Hello Daniel,

When I booted the computer this morning, kmail and gpg were working perfectly. 
I guess the computer just needed a reboot. I had made the changes you 
suggested and added the "gpg-agent --daemon" line to a script in ~/.kde/env 
and I just restarted X. Looks like this needs a full reboot to take effect.

Thanks,

Alvin
