Description Mugurel Tudor 2006-01-11 07:45:51 UTC 
Please describe the problem:
For the encrypted emails with PGP/Inline (encryption performed by default by
Thunderdird), there are two problems:
- first the text contained in the body of the email is displayed as an
attachment, and not as part of the body, as is should
- replying to that email, in the quoted part of the email the text will be
displayed _encrypted_, and not unencrypted, as it should.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Send an email from Thunderbird, using PGP/Inline, encrypted
2. Read it from Evolution, and you will see that the text is displayed as an
attachment
3 [details]. Reply to it from Evolution, and you will see in the quoted part the encrypted
text, and not unencrypted.


Actual results:
- The text is displayed as attachment
- On reply, the text is quoted as encrypted

Expected results:
- The text should be displayed in the body, and not as an attachment
- Replying to the email, you should see in the quoted part the unencrypted text

Does this happen every time?
Every time.

Other information:
I tested this with Evolution 2.4.2.1 from Debian Sid and Evolution 2.4.1 from
Gentoo.

There is no point attaching a test email to this, since an encrypted email needs
a PGP private key to be displayed (and I won't attach my private key here, also
:) ).

As a temporary workaround, before you hit the reply button, you may select the desired text, and when replying, that text will appear unencrypted in the quoted part of the email.

hi,
thanks for taking the time to report this.

first: in my opinion, it should not be displayed as the body, because it is not the body.

and you *could* attach sample messages by creating a test key - i did that once to solve an pgp issue (but no, we do not need an example message or key here, i know). :-)

mugurel, is it ok if i mark this bug report here as a duplicate of bug 314333?
Comment 3 Mugurel Tudor 2006-02-02 12:13:21 UTC 
It seems to be the same bug, so yes, you may mark it as a duplicate of #314333.
Comment 4 André Klapper 2006-02-02 14:47:55 UTC
