Description Jeremy Guthrie 2004-05-12 05:14:55 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.2.2)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          GCC V3.2.2
OS:                Linux

I have a USB PEN Drive.  I keep my GnuPG keys on there.  It would be great if I could have KMail keep my mailboxes encrypted unless I unlock them with my GnuPG Keys and password which are stored on the USB drive.  Thus if I remove my drive, no one can unlock any mail boxes I have.  The idea is that locally stored mail would be protected regardless if someone sent me encrypted mail or not because KMail would automatically encrypt mail for me.

You might use an encryted filesystem on your USP drive.
Comment 2 Helge Hielscher 2005-07-26 06:26:07 UTC 
Sounds like a dup of bug 78384
Comment 3 Jeremy Guthrie 2005-07-26 15:42:01 UTC 
I use an encrypted file system now but this would allow me to not worry about someone password attacking my EFS.  Plus, my mail storage is up to 4 gigs now.  I can't put that on an USB PEN drive let along my 1 gig ipod.

Thank you for your feature request. Kmail1 is currently unmaintained so we are closing all wishes. Please feel free to reopen a feature request for Kmail2 if it has not already been implemented.
Thank you for your understanding.

Instead of creating a new feature request, please confirm here if the wishlist is still valid for kmail2.
