Package: Evolution
Priority: Normal
Version: 1.0.2
Synopsis: Evolution spellchecks binary attachments
Bugzilla-Product: Evolution
Bugzilla-Component: Mailer

Description:
Evolution isn't very smart when it quotes PGP encrypted email on reply.
There is no problem displaying such an email, but when I do a reply to
it, it doesn't decrypt the email, but just pastes it into the edit
window. I guess it does this because the PGP encryption was in ASCII
armor format, thus looks like a text file.

In any case, evolution proceeds to run a spell check on the ASCII armor
of the PGP encrypted content, which takes forever... :-)

As a fix I would suggest making quoting of PGP messages better and be
somewhat smarter on what to include in the quoting.

The email that triggered this behaviour was sent with KMail:

Thanks for a great mailer. :-)
