"Force Not to Sign" ignored when account settings "Sign messages by default" is enabled

[Steve M.]

I have the following options enabled:

Thunderbird
   Account settings / OpenPGP Security
      Message Composition Default Options:
         Sign messages by default
         Encrypt draft messages on saving

Enigmail
   Sending
      Manual encryption settings
         Encrypt/sign replies to encrypted/signed messages
      Automatically send encrypted
         Never
      To send encrypted, accept
         All valid keys I have
      Confirm before sending
         If encrypted
   Key Selection
      By Email Addresses according to the key manager
      Manually if Keys are Missing
   Advanced
      Re-wrap signed HTML text before sending
      '--' is a signature separator
      Use '<' and '>' to specify email addresses

Can also provide debug logs if needed. Thanks!

I have the same problem with TB 31.1.2, Enigmail 1.7 (20140721-1151) (from standard Ubuntu 14.04 repositories). Changing message signing options for particular message from default, e.g. to "Force not to sign", is not obeyed, message signing still occurs.

These are fixed issues. Please update to Enigmail 1.7.2.

Hi everyone,

I hope its okay to re-open this discussion, but it perfectly fits my problem. I'm using Thunderbird 38.4.0 and Enigmail 1.8.2 on a Ubuntu Linux 15.10 machine. I'm haven the exact same settings as described by the thread-owner and the exact same problem. Even if I "manually force no signing", the PGP signature is attached to the E-Mails.

Am I missing something? I can provide debug logs if needed!

Thanks and Merry Chrismas!
Erik

Can you please try a nigthly build from https://www.enigmail.net/download/nightly.php and check if you can still reproduce the error with that version?

[Erik Sch]

I did what you asked my to do, but I still have the same problem. Now, I'm using Thunderbird 38.5.1 with Enigmail 1.9b2 from "nightly build" ... any further ideas?

[Patrick Brunschwig]

Can you please attach a debug log file?

Here it comes ...

Thanks for the log. I can reproduce this now. It looks like there is something missing if the option "By Per-Recipient Rules" in the "Key Selection" tab is disabled.

I have opened bug 570 for this.
