No, this is about giving the user a chance to send  something. Right
now, if Encryption is selected and the module isn't there, you can't
send anything. There is a warning that encryption is not
available when one starts to compose a mail, this is fine. But
when you try to send, claws complains that the message can't be
pre-stored for sending because the recipient's key isn't available.

In a way, that's logical, but it would be user-friendly to allow for
sending mail anyway.

No. Right now it's annoying, because you can't disable encryption like
you are describing -- you disable sending mail that way. But I
think (like you) that people would expect that sending mail still works
after unloading the module. That's why I reported this as a minor bug
and not as a wishlist item. Claws should be tolerant about
conflicting preferences like this, maybe with another warning.

Regards

Michael
