This is why I disabled gpg-agent. As little as I use Gnupg/PGP, I would always have to enter the passphrase at Evolution PIM startup... even though I had no intentions of using gpg for the entire session. (It's because a lot of the passwords are put in a gpg keyring ... or something.) It makes sense if you use Signatures/Encryption on a daily basis. If you only use Signatures/Encryption once a month, that's a lot of passphrase entering & caching! Granted, I now have to enter the pin each time I sign an email, it's rare though. (And, might be a good thing as some people's clients I email with a PGP based signature have severe issues viewing the email properly for reasons. As such, this prevents me from automagically signing & sending.) -- Roger http://rogerx.freeshell.org _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
