[Kolab-devel] [issue2183] Kontact shows misleading error messages for an opaque signed mail

[Bernhard Herzog]

New submission from Bernhard Herzog <bh at intevation.de>:

Under some circumstances, Kontact cannot properly decode opaque signed S/MIME
messages.  The message is framed in yellow and an error message is shown in the
top margin of the yellow frame:

   Not enough information to check signature validity.

The text in the frame is some binary garbage.

KWatchGnuPG shows: "gpgsm[16132]: error getting content-type attribute: No data"

Interestingly, Kontact successfully decodes the message when it is forwarded.
Decoding the mail with gpgsm on the command line also works fine.

This was with Kontact from KDEPIM enterprise 20070928.718341

Assigning to me because I'll probably have some more information tomorrow.
