Hello list,
I have one tiny but to report and a feature request - just as the
subject suggests. First the bug: I'm trying to send a message and the
key selection dialog pops up because recipients haven't been found. My
intention is to click "Send message unencrypted" and hit ok. When doing
this with the keyboard, there appears to be a race condition: If the
combination of tabulator-space is pressed in a quick enough sequence
(which I appearently do so quickly I'm having that issue every other
time), the recipient selection checkboxlist doesn't become disabled.
Consequently, the OK button cannot be pressed. The workaround is to
uncheck the "Send message unencrypted" field and check it again. Version
seems to be arbitrary, I've discovered that thing ages ago but just
haven't gotten around to post a message yet. I'm on Linux, that might be
important though (haven't checked out with Windows).
One more thing, a feature request: I yesterday had a friend reporting a
strange problem which suddenly appeared with sending encrypted messages.
Suddenly it all stopped working, he couldn't sign nor encrypt. Yeah, I
know what you're thinking - that's obvious. But the GPG error message
did quite mislead me at first and got me stumbling. It would be nice if
Enigmail could spot the condition and just pop up a window "Hey, this
didn't work because your key expired".
Keep up the awesome work!
Kind regards,
Johannes
