Was doing a little tweaking of my mail header config in Thunderbird and I have come across some rather quirky behaviour with the 0.95.5 version of enigmail and Thunderbird 2.0.0.9 (SuSE RPM). It has rather distracted me as I thought this was something to do with what I had been doing, which it seems not to be.
If I verify the signature the

Ah. Yes, I have noticed (rather I was told of this) that if my emails go out in English the signature verifies well in Thunderbird, but if they go in Spanish it doesn't verify. The difference is that in the second case the email uses utf-8. A good email goes like this: ...

But I haven't studied the thunderbird part of the problem. I know both kind of signatures verify well using kmail, for instance, so it is not my "fault".
part of the header appears in the body of the message on my machine. I have checked the enigmail bugzilla and it has not been reported there. I know the SuSE build is slightly different from the Mozilla release, so it is possibly a SuSE thing. Can anyone else confirm this behaviour. It is not a major issue as far as I can work out, but I have spent rather more time on working out what is going on than I would have preferred.
Sorry. I have known this for a bit more than a week, but I didn't though of reporting it to bugzilla, not knowing if it is a Novell issue. I commented this to the developper of the gpg filter I use, in the Alpine email list. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
