I have been encountering an error using GPG with Airmail's plugin. I know this isn't the ideal place to ask this, but I tried contacting their support to no avail. My only hope now is someone here can shed a light on this.

When I try to sign or encrypt a message with Airmail, it gives me this error message:

"Cannot send mail error [subject of email] Envelope cannot get the from of the message"

I have tried reinstalled Airmail, plugin, & GPGtools. This only occurs with my Exchange accounts. I dug into the source code of Airmail's GPG plugin, and found the trigger for this error message:

- (NSString*) Envelope:(NSString*)rfc info:(AMPComposerInfo*)info enc:(BOOL)enc sign:(BOOL)sign
{
    if(!rfc)
        @throw [NSException exceptionWithName:AMPGpgEncryptionException reason:@"GPG Envelope missing rfc input" userInfo:nil];
    
    NSString *from              = info.localMessage.from.mail;
    if(!from)
        @throw ([NSException exceptionWithName:AMPGpgEncryptionException reason:@*"GPG Envelope cannot get the from of the message*" userInfo:nil]);

I'm trying to understand the nature of the error, so at least I can try things to resolve this. Does anyone know what the error message is trying to tell me?

    Hi xodax,

    it looks like for some reason Airmail can't get the sender information for the GPG plugin.
    Unfortunately we're not at all familiar with Airmail's GPG plugin and can't help you further.
    Since some Exchange accounts have really strange email address with \ character in them, this might be a reason.

    It's best if you keep trying Airmail support.

    Hi Luke - thanks for getting back to me! Do you know who maintains the GPG plugin? As my main email account is Exchange, this is a feature I value quite a bit. And it seems many other issues are experiencing this as well from comments online.

    Airmail rocks, btw
