Good. Then I will include this patch in the next version and close this 
report.

Well, it's Free Software. Furthermore it's much more flexible and it can 
handle user ids which contain non-ASCII characters (like umlauts) 
correctly. PGP 6 doesn't handle them correctly as it doesn't store the 
user ids UTF-8 encoded although this is required by the OpenPGP specs.
Furthermore PGP 6 is no longer supported which means that bugs won't be 
fixed. And PGP 7 is still not available for Unix (apart from the fact 
that it's source hasn't been fully published).

Regards,
Ingo

has caused the attached bug report to be marked as done.

This means that you claim that the problem has been dealt with.
If this is not the case it is now your responsibility to reopen the
bug report if necessary, and/or fix the problem forthwith.

(NB: If you are a system administrator and have no idea what I'm
talking about this indicates a serious mail system misconfiguration
somewhere.  Please contact me immediately.)

Subject: Problems using PGP 6.5.8
From: hans@eichbaum.com

Package:           kmail
Version:           1.3.1 (using KDE 2.2.1 )
Severity:          normal
Installed from:    compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc version 2.95.3 20010315 (release) [FreeBSD]
OS:                FreeBSD (i386) release 4.4-STABLE
OS/Compiler notes:

I've a fresh FreeBSD system and installed the kde2 package via the \
/usr/ports/x11/kde2 placeholder on my box. Everything works well except the PGP-usage \
in kmail. I am running PGP 6.5.8 and I've a .pgp directory in my home-dir, so nothing \
unusual. Whenever I want anything to do with pgp in kmail, kmail hangs and starts to \
eat lots of cpu-time. This happens on attaching anything asociated with pgp, so even \
on attaching my public-key to a message.
