Hi,
I've been transitions from mailcrypt to epg over the past few weeks.
It's been reported to me multiple times that epg chooses the wrong
keys to encrypt to. Initially, I thought that it would choose the
wrong key when I didn't have a key with the corresponding email
address locally. (In this case, mailcrypt would complain.) But, I
just sent an email to someone whose key I have on my keyring (Werner
Koch <wk@gnupg.org>) and it instead choose "Sam "Eddie" Couter
<eddie@debian.org>" (which, of course, is also on my keyring).
The only other pattern that I've recognized is that this has happened
when I sent the mail to multiple people. I typically use a to: line
for each recipient. I don't know if this is the problem.
Also, if the key is not trusted, I just get an prompt: "Use untrusted
key y/n" (approximately) and I don't know which key is meant.
If there is an issue tracker that I should be using instead or perhaps
another mailing list, please point me to it.
Thanks,
Neal
