To be honest, I'm not sure that it is the fault of gpg. To my mind, both Thunderbird and KMail should always respect the preference marked as the default key for the user in question. It seems to me that it is more of a job for the address book interface, to ask for the default key and whether older keys are to be disabled. Or am I misunderstanding again - is that part actually handled by gpg? I'll add to the bug report mentioned above. Thanks Anne -- New to KDE Software? - get help from http://userbase.kde.org
