Which of our tools is giving you problems?

GPGMail

(Nightly) 2.6a1 (56eae40)

Describe your problem. Add as much detail as possible.

Just as it says in the title. I've upgraded to El Capitan GM and removed all prior Mail.app config. Installed the pre-release GPGSuite and the El Capitan alpha GPGMail. No green on OpenPGP and both sign and encrypt buttons are grayed out.

What did you expect instead

Expected green OpenPGP and blue/check sign, lock available to encrypt.

Describe steps leading to the problem.

Installed new suite, new GPGMail

If your problem concerns GPGMail, are other plugins installed in Mail.app?

None.

Please attach .png or .jpg screenshots of error messages or steps leading to your problem and remove this line once you're done wrinting your report. Then click the Create button to start a new discussion.

    Hi Chris,

    yep, encryption is only available if you enter a recipeint and are in possision of the public key for the mail address you are writing to.

    Glad you were able to figure this out.

    I'm closing this discussion. If you need further assistance or have questions you can re-open this discussion here or open a new one any time.

    Best, steve
