Hi,
I noticed that (with epg and recent Gnus) a S/MIME-signed message is
sent out even when the passphrase entry has been unsuccessful (because
pinentry’s cancel button was pressed, or because a wrong passphrase has
been entered multiple times). The sent-out message contains some
invalid signature.
OpenPGP-signed messages behave reasonably, i.e. one finds oneself in the
message buffer after a failed passphrase entry.
Any ideas where to look to fix this in S/MIME?
Christoph

AFAICT this has already been reported in
http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=18513 and is possibly a
release blocker for the next Emacs release. If it's the same issue or a
variation thereof, please add your notes to that bug report.
Thanks
Ted
