Description Hanno Böck gentoo-dev 2018-05-22 06:47:07 UTC
Enigmail 2.0.5 provides better protection against efail:
https://sourceforge.net/p/enigmail/forum/announce/thread/2905e54a/

It will reject unusual combinations of multipart messages, particularly it prevents one from putting HTML in front of an encrypted part in the same renderer, which kills a lot of the remaining efail scenarios.

Please bump.
