Description S. Burmeister 2005-05-20 08:52:36 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.4.0)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
OS:                Linux

Whenever I set a key's trustworthiness to something else than "unconditional" (the highest option of trust in kpgp) the email it should validate is displayed as:
Signature is valid, yet the key's validitiy is not known.

If I set the trust option not to "fully" (second highest), but "unconditional", kmail displays that the key is _fully_ trustworthy.

The latter might be a bug in the German translation, i.e. unconditional was translated to fully trustworthy.

However, the former seems like a bug. If I set the trustworthiness of a key to fully or even worse "not trustworthy", kmail should not display that key's validitiy is not known, but the state I set it to, i.e. fully for fully, unconditional for unconditionaly, "not trustworthy" for "not trustworthy" and so on.

To make the trust settings more visible to the user, the frame around the signed text should get a signal colour, i.e. red for "not trustworthy", orange for "limited" and green for "fully" and "unconditional". Maybe to kinds of green for the latter two.

Thank you for taking the time to file a bug report.

KMail2 was released in 2011, and the entire code base went through significant changes. We are currently in the process of porting to Qt5 and KF5. It is unlikely that these bugs are still valid in KMail2.

We welcome you to try out KMail 2 with the KDE 4.14 release and give your feedback.
