Description Stephan Friedrichs 2007-06-16 14:01:59 UTC
When trying to decrypt mail with thunderbird 2, enigmail shows the error icon above the affected mail. It gives the following error-message:

------------------------------------------------------------------
OpenPGP Security Info

Error - secret key needed to decrypt message

gpg command line and output:
/usr/bin/gpg --charset utf8  --batch --no-tty --status-fd 2 -d --use-agent 
gpg: problem with the agent: No pinentry
gpg: encrypted with 2048-bit ELG key, ID 275829F5, created 2003-11-22
      "..."
gpg: encrypted with 4096-bit ELG key, ID E0108F4D, created 2006-07-25
      "..."
gpg: public key decryption failed: General error
gpg: encrypted with 2048-bit ELG key, ID 6F19F1D0, created 2004-01-29
      "..."
gpg: decryption failed: No secret key
------------------------------------------------------------------

(I replaced the actual emails with ...), but mine is in the list, I do have the private key and it worked with thunderbird 1.5.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Try to read a pgp-encrypted Mail

Have you re-emerged enigmail after TB upgrade?

No, not since 2.0.0.6. But I have no idea why.
