<p>welcome to the GPGTools support platform. Sorry you are having problems using GPG Suite.</p>
<p>Are you able to reproduce this behavior? What defaults are you using in Mail.app > Preferences > GPGMail for encryption, signing and drafts?</p>
<p>Do all recipients have a public key (ignoring the fact, that they were unable to decrypt)?</p>
<p>Are you planning on updating your mac to macOS 10.13?</p>
<p>Best,<br>

it's the Mac of a friend of mine (I try to convince everybody to use GPG ;-)<br>
The box is running 10.11 and can't be upgraded anymore.<br>
None of the recipients have a key, that's what baffled me and I can't reproduce that behaviour, because all test-addresses I could use are having a valid key.<br>
Yes, correct, it's set to signing and encrypt drafts.<br>
If I deactivate the draft encryption, then emails are not encrypted at all, even when the recipient has a valid key.<br>
cheers<br>

<li>
<p>encrypted message with no public key for recipient<br>
To test this, you can temporarily export and then delete a public key of a recipient from GPG Keychain. Then you are able to test the situation when no public key is available for the recipient.</p>

<li>
<p>If I deactivate the draft encryption, then emails are not encrypted at all, even when the recipient has a valid key.<br>
That sounds really odd and also should not be the case. There are three defaults (encrypt, sign, drafts). So if you disable drafts and have a valid public key for the recipient and the default to encrypt new emails is enabled, the new message should be encrypted. Can you verify that this is working or not working as expected.</p>
