Patrick, as you couldd clearly see, enigmail message info says: Decrypted message
Note: The message is encrypted for the following User ID's / Keys: 0xA465836F77AD8DF8 (dpecka <[email protected]>), 0xA7C056435C18F835 (dpecka <[email protected]>) and the colour of the bar is grey. dan On 15/01/2019 17:23, Patrick Brunschwig wrote: > > > On 15.01.2019 16:18, Daniel Pecka wrote: >> On 15/01/2019 13:24, Patrick Brunschwig wrote: >>> On 15.01.2019 11:30, Daniel Pecka wrote: >>>> Hello folks, >>>> >>>> I have Enigmail version 2.0.8 (20181210-1200) and it seems to me, that >>>> enigmail somehow remembers the passphrase for my gpg key(s) and doesn't >>>> ask anymore when sending email (for subscribing) .. >>> >>> Enigmail doesn't remember any passphrase, nor would it ask for any >>> passphrase.
