For me the 'fix' was to remove the Fedora Thunderbird and Fedora
Enigmail and install, and use, the Thunderbird downloaded directly
from Mozilla and the Enigmail v 1.4.1 from Add-on Mozilla. However I
use the Enigmail v 1.5a1pre, the development version, downloaded from
the Enigmail site.

For me, it wasn't a known problem.

It also worked for a month or so flawlessly. The bug was probably
introduced by some update.

I am sure, having checked this for several times.

There used to be an OS-package enigmail in the rather distant past,
though. Maybe it left something behind.

Hello,

some problem seems to be here again: I cannot encrypt / decrypt anymore,
and the error console contains the following message twice:

Any ideas?

I could get rid of it by deleting the extensions subdirectory again, but
I do not think it is reasonable, especially after almost every restart
of Linux.

Best regarrds

Decrypting Attachments as created by "Encrypt/sign eachattachment separately ..."

Willi Mann — 2012-05-10T17:06:23

Hi!

A Debian User has discovered that enigmail fails to decrypt attachments 
encrypted by enigmail with the option mentioned in the subject (decryption 
of the main meesage body works fine). This problem is reproducible with the 
latest enigmail version 1.4.1 and icedove (thunderbird) 11. 

I've put the source (stripped most of the header) of such a message at 

http://wserver.wm1.at/~willi/debian/enigmail/fails_to_decrypt_attachment.txt

Is this a known problem or should I file a bug report? I'd also like to know 
whether other people can reproduce this problem, after all, I always have to 
consider the possibility that I've messed something up in the Debian 
package.

Hello Patrick,

I finally had some success when I opened the .thunderbird subdirectory
of my home directory,
located the extension directory for enigmail and deleted it completely
manually.

Then, Enigmail could be uninstalled and reinstalled. Momentally, it
seems to work.

Was a bit drastic solution, though.

Hello,

no, there seem to be no .lock in the .gnupg, and gnupg isn't running.

I have, in the meantime, landed in a greater problem, though: Enigmail
is "half-uninstalled"
and it will not uninstall completely, neither let itself be re-installed.

Also, if I exit Thunderbird, the window of Thunderbird will disappear,
but the process will
keep running, hogging over 1 GB RAM, and only kill -9 will really kill it.

Bad situation.

Re: gpg/pgp noise

Not at all. This is a faulty understanding of PGP/MIME benefits and requirements.

If you examine the source of a message, PGP/Mime protects everything beginning
with:

This is a multi-part message in MIME format.
--------------070907060307020009070509

down to the last
--------------070907060307020009070509
which are the section separators.

It does not and cannot protect headers added by mailist software and MTAs --
these message headers are added after you signed and sent your message. How
could they be protected by an earlier signature?

Built upon prior work in https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2015.txt &

It's possible RFC 3156 may have been superseded by now. My favorite OpenPGP
laugh comes from the Ïnline PGP is deprecated"crowd. This self-serving
statement appears no where except in RFC 3156.

Enigmail adds the necessary headers to define the MIME parts and then signs
the message according to the PGP/

Hello,

I tried uninstalling Enigmail. The Add-On Manager "pretended" to do
that, then asked me
for Thunderbird restart.

Then, after restart of Thunderbird, Enigmail is still there, but it does
not have the Remove option (in the Addon Manager) anymore.

One tough beast!

Probably some configuration file is left over, or the uninstallation did
not succeed.

It is possible that uninstallation is actually impossible if some of the
Enigmail worker threads
can't be killed or what ... ?

You could try backing up your hidden Thunderbird folder un-installing and then reinstall.
Then when you run Thunderbird for the first time - delete all the files and folders it
creates and copy your old files into the folder. That way you are up and running again.

Hello David,

you probably meant "uninstalling Fedora", not "uninstalling Enigmail"...?

I can't change the entire OS, it is, in many other directions, a stable
and fine-tuned platform
for my work, and there is simply not enough time to do a full reinstall
to something else.

Though I like openSuse as well...

Nevertheless, Enigmail on Fedora behaved correctly until very recently;
I would guess that it
is not fault of the operating system.

Best regards

Marian

Enigmail stopped working - loads keys for infinity

Marian Kechlibar — 2012-05-09T10:24:26

Hello,

I am using Enigmail on Fedora 16 x86_64 with Thunderbird. TB version is
12.0.1, Enigmail version is 1.4.1.

Enigmail stopped working completely some days ago, and any attempt to
use it complains that Enigmail
isn't correctly initialized. When I open OpenPGP / Key management, there
is an endlessly  running status
bar at the bottom of the window, saying "Loading keys, please wait ..."
(my translation, the message is in Czech),
and no keys are visible. AFAIK, I have done nothing with my keyring (the
keyset is constant, nothing added...), but
some of them may have expired in that time - I am not sure.

There are some interesting errors in the Thunderbird error console,
generated at the startup of Thunderbird, namely:

subprocess.jsm: got error from stdinWorker: expected type int, got (void 0)

and this repeats once more with a slightly different message:

expected type int, got (void 0)
resource://enigmail/subprocess_worker_unix.js

Can you help me?

Best regards
