Hi. I posted this as a bug to the debian bug tracker ages ago (bts
#440932), but it's gone woefully ignored.

So I'm going to ask here on the off chance that any other debian (sid)
users share my problem: Enigmail seems to completely ignore whatever I
set for my maxIdleMinutes, and regardless of settings about gpg-agent
always asks me for my passphrase.
Any ideas what could be wrong?

For the record, enigmail seems to work fine in debian detch, so it's
something sid specific, but it's been this way for several versions now,
so something is strange.

I'm running icedove 2.0.0.9-3 and enigmail 2:0.95.0+1-3.1.

Here's the "grep enigmail" parts of my prefs.js:

user_pref("extensions.enigmail.advancedUser", true);
user_pref("extensions.enigmail.composeHtmlAlertCount", 0);
user_pref("extensions.enigmail.configuredVersion", "0.95.0");
user_pref("extensions.enigmail.displaySignWarn", false);
user_pref("extensions.enigmail.encryptAttachments", 0);
user_pref("extensions.enigmail.logDirectory", "/home/krisp/log/enigmail");
user_pref("extensions.enigmail.maxIdleMinutes", 30);
user_pref("extensions.enigmail.saveEncrypted", 1);
user_pref("mailnews.headers.extraExpandedHeaders", "x-enigmail-version
content-transfer-encoding openpgp x-mimeole x-bugzilla-reason x-php-bug");

Thanks for any ideas!
