Description:
hi,

i have problems with verifying messages in evolution and thunderbird. maybe
other mail programms have also problems on my system, but i didnt tested them.

it seems they freeze when i try to verify a message, but when i kill the gpg
process in a shell thunderbird give this output

gpg command line and output:
/usr/bin/gpg --charset utf8  --batch --no-tty --status-fd 2 -d
gpg: Signature made Di 15 Nov 2005 11:47:27 CET using DSA key ID 801EA932

evolution dont give any feedback, but you can use the abort butten or jump to
another mai.

I use ps aux to find out, how gpg was invoked by thunderbird:

/usr/bin/gpg --charset utf8 --batch --no-tty --status-fd 2 -d
