Description Gunnar Johannesmeyer 2003-02-02 14:42:32 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
Compiler:          gcc version 3.2 
OS:          Linux

I have multiple identities (a and b) and only the first (the standart identity) is assigned to a PGP key. I also use 'Automatically sign messages'. 

when switching to identity b and than backward to a with the assigned PGP key, the mail is *not* signed!

Examples:
identity a (standart) -> signed
identity a than switching to b and back to a -> *not* signed
identity b -> saving in draft folder -> switching to a  -> *not* signed

Tried this in the development version of KMail. Switching identity does not make signing not work. 
The second 'problem (saving as draf does not regard the signing button), actually this is a setting (Configure KMail -> Security -> Composing -> Never sign/encrypt when saving as draft).

Similar problem, Version 1.8.1: "auto sign mails" is my default setting. However, my default identity is not assigned to gpg keys, so signing is turned off when composing a new mail. When changing to an identity with keys, it would be great if signing is on (=my default) automatically.

Additionally, if I turn on signing for the current identity having gpg keys, switching to an identity without keys and back to the first identity, signing remains turned off.

I suggest that the signing option is handled seperatly for every identity in the compose window.
