<p>the pinentry requests you are seeing could be happening due to the migration from MacGPG 2.0 to 2.2.</p>
<p>Please visit the following <a href="https://gpgtools.tenderapp.com/kb/faq/gpg-suite-20171-gnupg-20-gnupg-22-migration-help#since-the-upgrade-i-39-m-asked-for-my-secret-key-39-s-passphrase-but-i-can-39-t-remember-what-it-was-">KB-article</a> and let me know if that brings you back to the expected state.</p>
<p>Best,<br>

<p>PS: PS: To benefit from the latest security fixes from apple, you may want to check for pending macOS updates in the MacAppStore. General info about Apple <a href="https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201222">security releases</a> including the latest macOS release.</p></div>Stevetag:gpgtools.tenderapp.com,2011-11-04:Comment/452493452018-05-09T12:58:34Z2018-05-09T12:58:35ZGPGMail: Suddenly asking for passphrase for every email<div><p>Since this update everything has gone pear-shaped. The program is unusable and your suggested fixes are not working. WHY did you guys screw this up?</p>
<p>Keychain access no longer has gnupg.</p>
<p>gpg --import < ~/.gnupg/secring.gpg<br>
