Subject: pgg*.el and passphrase caching
Date: Tue, 19 Aug 2003 11:02:42 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <gegg.m3lltqnhot.fsf@beldin.gothgoose.net> (raw)
Hallo,
I want to switch from gpg.el to pgg.el. I encounterd the problem, that
passphrase caching doesn't work as I would expect. I try to describe
what happens:
I have 3 mails:
- msg 1 from A
- msg 2 my answer to 1
- msg 3 A's answer to 2
If I want to (re)view msg 1 pgg.el asks me to enter the passphrase for
A's key-ID. When I enter my passphrase the message gets decrypted and
the passphrase is cached so I can view msg 2 without reentering the
passphrase. When I now want to view message 3 pgg again asks me for A's
passphrase so I have to reenter mine.
I *think* the problem is, that all messages also are "encrypted to self"
and pgg.el wants to take the first Key-ID it finds (and this is the one
of the originator of the mail).
Is there a way to say: "Always take one of my Key-IDs"? And then
decrypt the messages with the cached phrase?
I don't know if it's a gpg problem or a pgg one.
Bye
Mark
