Curiouser and curiouser. Opening a mail in my Sent folder, one which had been encrypted to my own key as well as to its recipient's worked exactly as advertized. Evo asked me for my key and then decrypted the message for me. Looks like the incoming mail I reported earlier didn't have pedantically correct headers or something. Here's the mail with personal information and Received: removed.

Apologies if this has already been answered but I can't find anything about it in the archives. Indeed, I can't find *anything* in the archives. The search page at http://mail.gnome.org/archives/evolution-list/ never ever returns anything to me no matter what search term I enter into the box, even something I'd expect to produce lots of hits such as evo* Anyway, whinging aside, can anyone explain to me how to read GPG-encrypted mail with Evo 2.2.2 running under Gnome 2.0 on UltraSparc Solaris 5.9. TFM claims it should just work: " When you view the message, Evolution prompts you for your PGP password. Enter it, and the unencrypted message is displayed. " Not for me it doesn't. Ok, I can save the message to a file and decrypt it from the command line, but that is *sooo* 1990's. Anyone with suggestions as to how to add the decryption functionality? I guess I need to type in some MIME type mumbo jumbo, but what and where? Thanks, Paul
