Description Gareth Williams 2016-01-28 21:27:53 UTC

On a system where GPG and S/MIME certificates are installed and KMail is set to prefer S/MIME, replying to a plain, GPG or S/MIME email causes KMail to attempt to use GPG.

Checking Options -> Cryptographic Message Format, shows no radio button selected whereas it should be S/MIME.  When the Send button is sent, KMail asks for the passphrase to open the GPG key.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Reply to plain, GPG or S/MIME email
2. Check Options -> Cryptographic Message Format for S/MIME but you'll see no radio button selected.
3. Click on Send.

Actual Results:  
KMail attempts to send using GPG signature.

Expected Results:  
KMail should send using S/MIME signature.

Creating a new email works as expected - S/MIME is selected in the cryto message format setting and the mail is signed using S/MIME.

Workaround is to always remember to check Options->Cyptographic Message Fromat and change it to S/MIME before sending.
