Hi, I had a similar issue with icedove + enigmail with 'Error - bad passphrase' and 'You are using gpg-agent for passphrase handling. Clearing the passphrase is therefore not possible from within Enigmail.' I had logged in on a 2nd virtual terminal which somehow killed the gpg-agent. Check your .xsession-errors; I found this: running 'pkill -INT ^gpg-agent$; Check if gpg-agent is running: ~$ ps aux |grep gpg ralph 3593 0.0 0.0 19352 680 ? Ss May24 0:15 gpg-agent --daemon --write-env-file /home/ralph/.cache/gpg-agent-info This is up-to-date stable; uses pinentry-gtk2. I rebooted to resolve the issue, but I think only gpg-agent needed to be restarted. Hope this may help you troubleshoot your issue. Good luck!
