I asked because for most users this would be a PITA (it means keeping PGP keys for all your correspondents, or constantly having to unset the option). However if you really want it, have you tried setting "Always encrypt when sending from this account" under the Security tab for the account preferences? Maybe this wasn't in 3.12.x, I don't remember, but I think it's been around for quite a long time. poc _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
