I'm not sure exactly what I did
but I'll explain step by step. So using Spotlight, I pulled up the
Keychain Access tool that is bundled with OSX. Next I selected
"Keychain Chain" in the main menu, then "Keychain First Aid". Then
I authenticated myself, selected "Repair" and let it run.
Afterwards, I got "No problems found. Repair Complete" while I
noticed a strange looking empty keychain called
PrivateEncryptedDatak which is this upon further investigation.</p>

<p>So, I selected that weird Keychain in the left sidewindow, did
an option click, and selected "Unlock Keychain". Next, I was
prompted for a password, which I tried all my system passwords to
no avail. Finally, I tried an empty password and it worked. Then I
option clicked again and selected "Delete Keychain" and clicked
"Delete References and Files". Then I relaunched Apple Mail, and no
more nagging Passphrase message! I'm not sure if it was a result of
the Repair or the cleanup of this weird empty Keychain but
everything works as expected now. Thought I would share this info
because I see a few people complaining about the same thing.</p>
<p>Cheers,</p>

<p>what you're describing are known issues which will be fixed in
the GPGMail 2.0 stable version which is to be released soon.</p></div>Luke Letag:gpgtools.tenderapp.com,2011-11-04:Comment/150543432012-04-06T23:28:42Z2012-04-06T23:28:42ZApple Mail (web)<div><p>As I mentioned in my reply, I seemed to have fixed this issue. I
do agree that the whole process is very flakey. I had to also go
into the System Preferences and enable "Use Keychain to store
passphrases". It required many relaunching of Apple Mail and
reboots for it to stick, but eventually, I got it working. I'm no
longer prompted for the passphrase when opening up Apple Mail, and
it appears it work properly now.</p></div>Haltag:gpgtools.tenderapp.com,2011-11-04:Comment/150543432012-04-07T08:05:51Z2012-04-07T08:05:51ZApple Mail (web)<div><p>Great to hear you are now setup. The current process might be
confusing and we are thinking about how to better deal with this,
but changes like integrating the whole GPGPreferences into GPGMail
aren't easily done. Also not all settings that can be made in the
GPGPreferences might be GPGMail related etc.</p>
<p>So, yes this will most likely be tweaked on the long run, but
don't ask us what our solution will look like (yet). :)</p>
<p>cheers,<br>
