Hi All,

I installed gpg2 - which is incompatible with enigmail causing it to freeze and malfunction.
I also discovered that gpg2 is unable to digitally sign then encrypt to a recipients public
key at the same time - and that gpg2 is unable to recognise specific gpg2 commands in your
*.conf file.

Do not think therefore that upgrading to gpg2 is a good idea - another poster on another
mailing list running Fedora-16 64 bit stated that enigmail failed to "initialise" with gpg2
and was unable to resolve the fact that they could neither sign or encrypt. I had the same
problems with Fedora-16 32 bit.

Stick  with gpg 1.4.11 - its stable and works!

David
