Great news. Nelson Bolyard fixed the interoperability problem. There was a problem in how gpgsm encoded cipher preferences. Thunderbird crypto library was made more lenient in what it accepted. So, now, TB would correctly responds to KMail using 3DES instead of RC/40. See https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=379625
Not sure when this fix will make it to a release. Still unresolved: * support of AES by Thunderbird https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=379753 * Thunderbird should not support weak crypto https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=84213 * correct generation of SMimeCapabilities by gpgsm http://www.intevation.de/roundup/aegypten/issue754 * GPGSM does not recognize Verisign certs because of MD2 hash algo http://www.intevation.de/roundup/aegypten/issue430 -- Nick _______________________________________________ dev-tech-crypto mailing list dev-tech-crypto@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-tech-crypto
