Everything doubling when I encrypt/decrypt

Hi, I am having a problem when I encrypt messages in text edit.
When I encrypt, it encrypts the message in two different pgp blocks, and prints the message twice in each pgp block.
Here is an example of what I am talking about:

Original Message:
Protected Message

Message after being decrypted:

So, I end up with the message printed out 4 times!
What is going on here?! I've been trying to figure this out for a while now.
Thanks!

    Hey Dylan,

    thanks a lot for your report. I can confirm this problem with the latest nightly (from 20120321).

    We have created a ticket for this bug here. Feel free to subscribe to the ticket here: http://gpgtools.lighthouseapp.com/projects/67607/tickets/130

    Since we are about to release GPGMail 2.0 and have many things going on currently I can't promise a fast fix for this.

    What's happening here is textedit chooses (for whatever reasons) to post the output twice: the output is 1x plaintext and 1x rtf.

    So choose whichever output you prefere and continue. But I agree it's an annoying bug.

    Thanks for the report! :)
