Description Andreas Klöckner 2004-11-22 17:21:37 UTC

Version:           1.7.1 (using KDE KDE 3.3.1)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages
OS:                Linux

When this happens and I try to send an email, I get an error that tells me that no signing keys are available. Trying to edit the relevant identity afterwards, I get a box that tells me

"General Error

Could not retrieve signing keys from backend."

Restarting Kmail (or rather, Kontact) usually fixes the problem.

I have this problem as well. When this happens, kmail is also unable to verify any signatures. It is really annoying having to restart kontact twice a day or so...

Experimented a bit and I can now confirm that this only happens when Kmail is started from within Kontact.

Hasn't happened in a year or so.
