Description Thorben Kröger 2003-05-18 12:26:32 UTC

Version:           0.6.2 (using KDE KDE 3.1)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          GCC 2.95.3 
OS:          Linux

When looking at sent and received messages in the history there is no way to decrypt them, which renders the function of the history next to useless, as I can't read what was written.

Comment 1 Olivier Goffart 2003-05-18 12:59:47 UTC

I see a way to fix this, it is to store message in plain text (decrypted) in the history. 
but then, we lost security

Comment 2 Thorben Kröger 2003-05-18 14:10:17 UTC

Storing decrypted messages would lose security indeed. 
I think it would be best to save them encrypted and decrypt them on the fly when viewing the 
history. The user would be asked for his GPG passphrase once.

Comment 3 Olivier Goffart 2003-05-23 15:49:38 UTC

History is now saved as plain text (in HEAD).

Comment 4 Andreas Gutapfel 2004-02-11 14:35:44 UTC

I have the same problem with kopete 0.8.0 (kde 3.2). The history is encrypted and there is no way to decrypt the messages in the history with kopete.

Comment 5 Matthias Laabs 2004-02-17 02:17:40 UTC

History is still encrypted here (kopete 7.4 debian sid).

Comment 6 Jan Essert 2004-06-16 17:45:15 UTC

history is still encrypted in kopete 8.2 (kde 3.2.2) ..

so - the bug isn't resolved after all?
