Hi,
Probably asking the obvious, but did you select GPG as the "Encryption tool to use" ? (in Settings -> Configure Kmail -> Security -> OpenPGP)
Cheers, Robert.
Yes, the "Encryption tool to use" is set to "GnuPG - Gnu Privacy Guard" Carsten

Hi,
My problem is that the "Your OpenGPG key" dialog box showing my PGP key won't allow me to select it. That is, I can change the background color of the entry in the list by moving the cursor over the entry and clicking the mouse button, but the OK button stays grayed.
I have searched the net for answers, and while I found someone who had the same problem, his solution (disabling the default key in ~/.gnupg/ gpg.conf) did not work (it was already disabled). I have tried to disable gpg-agent in gpg.conf. I have tried to enable the default key in gpg.conf, using my key as the default value. None of these actions have resulted in success.
Using gpg from the command line, I can verify that both the public and private keys exist. The public key is trusted with u/u (I generated it on this machine today). The pub/sec key ID is shown in the dialog box, but not the sub/ssb key ID. I have not tried to encrypt a message yet.
The installation is only a few weeks old, and performed via FTP. KMail is version 1.5.4, KDE is 3.1.4, and gpg is 1.2.2. Any help is greatlyt appreciated.

Have you got OpenPGP set on the Crypto Plugins tab in the settings? You should have an entry named "OpenPGP" with the location /usr/lib/cryptplug/gpgme-openpgp.so (At least that is the location on my SuSE 9.0 box with KDE 3.2) - -- Colin Pinkney http://www.cpinkney.org.uk -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFAZGNLioDqRlN9/eURAgJbAJwMhWtKgHf1AGcE9vfwonSqwslSJQCgjxOa /DtSIQRu8nNrbLrA7Mrnw44= =6pbm -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Yes, that's the way it is on my machine as well. -- ====================================================================== Carsten P. Gehrke Delphi Research/SPAWAR System Center cgehrke@spawar.navy.mil +1 (619) 553-7822
