        Hi,
Evolution (or better libcamel from evolution-data-server) only calls
gpg with certain arguments in the background. As long as you've
configured gpg through its .conf file it should be working. Maybe
except when correct gpg is called. The libcamel can still call both
gpg1 and gpg2, there's a setting for it in GSettings [1]. The arguments
being passed to the gpg are mentioned here [2]. Which are used depends
on the actual action. The encrypt part adds these arguments [3] to
those common.
        Bye,
        Milan
