Description Germain CHAZOT 2003-05-15 00:42:14 UTC
Version:           3.1.1 (using KDE 3.1.1)
Compiler:          gcc version 2.95.4 20011002 (Debian prerelease)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.20-1gc

My problem is when I click on a gpg-signed message for which I don't have the public key in Kmail, it hangs for several minutes. It is the same if Kmail tries to open the message when changing of directory.
I checked and my gpg.conf contains the option auto-key-retrieve.
It makes it since I use the OpenPGP plugin as described here:
http://kmail.kde.org/kmail-pgpmime-howto.html
I don't use Pinentry-Qt but Pinentry-GTK since pinentry-qt crashes at the same time it opens up (It has worked a while but yet doesn't).
I use Kmail version 1.5.1 with KDE3.1.1a on Debian Sarge.

The only way I have found to pass is to wait for Kmail's come back and to manually do a gpg --recv-keys.
I also searched in the plugin options but I didn't find anything.
If someone can help.
