GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 219660
improper verification of pgp (gnupg) signature

Package: Evolution Priority: Normal Version: 1.0.1 Synopsis: improper verification of pgp (gnupg) signature Bugzilla-Product: Evolution Bugzilla-Component: Mailer Description: I responded to a message that had an attachment. I cc'd the response back to myself. The message was signed my my digital signature (using gnupg) automatically when it was sent by evolution. However when I click on the "check signature" icon when the cc'd message came back to me, it said it was a bad signature. Could evolution be signing it wrong (remember there was a plain-text attachment that was in the original message that is also expanded in the reply)? Or is it verifying the signature wrong? I'm thinking that when the message was signed, it only signed the main part of my message and not the attachment, but when it came through, the attachment was part of the body, and thus the signature broke when evolution tried to verify the signature using the whole body of the message plus the attachment. Hope that made sense. Unknown reporter: torriem@cs.byu.edu, changed to bugbuddy-import@ximian.com.
