I can sign the email and see the signed and / or encrypted mail, but the email is sent unencrypted, even if the encryption button was selected. I tried to send it with and without the 'sign' button selected (the email is sent correctly signed when it should)

Expected
Mail sent encrypted when it should to

    I had a similar issue. Do you by chance have another Mail plugin installed, like Mail Act-On for example? When I disabled Mail Act-On, GPG then encrypted messages as expected.

    You're right, I have several Mail plugins, and encryption works well when I disable mail act-on. I need it enabled, but at least the problem origin is located.

    Hi,

    thank you very much for this valuable information.
    We know the people developing Act-On and will get in touch with them.

    I can verify that Mail Act-On is causing a conflict. I uninstalled it and now my GPGMail encrypts properly.

    Steve, you can link this thread too:

    Please note you can just disable the Mail Act-On plugin as I describe in that thread.

    Done, thanks for pointing that out. And yes, temporarily disabling Mail Act-On will bring you a working GPGMail. We still have to look into the specifics to solve this problem.

    Just confirmed that Mail Act-On 4.0.3 released recently does -not- fix the problem.
