Hello, After I have changed the password for my gpg key, there is something very strange:
When I try to sign my mail, the new password is rejected, while the old one is still valid. Even after I killed the gpg-agent, rebooted my machine or sacrificed a cpu to the gods of linux... When I sign a file from commandline, it works just fine: % gpg --sign test.txt You need a passphrase to unlock the secret key for user: "Markus Grunwald <mar...@the-grue.de>" 4096-bit RSA key, ID 79D7E890, created 2012-05-31 This is somehow scary, because it means my mail program has some copy/cache/whatever which seems to be my key, but can be unlocked with the wrong password... My mail program is sylpheed-claws: % dpkg -l claws-mail | egrep '^ii' ii claws-mail 3.14.0-1+b1 amd64 Fast, lightweight and user-friendly GTK+2 based email client I even configured claws to use the key 79D7E890 manually, but still the old password is valid. I hope you have a hint what could be wrong... -- Markus Grunwald Fragen zur Mail? http://www.the-grue.de/mail_und_co http://www.the-grue.de/~markus/markus_grunwald.gpg
