Hi Marc and all,

what is OpenPGP/MIME??? Please call it OpenPGP (RFC xyz) and PGP/MIME 
(RFC abc).

As KDE is Qt-based we should recommend pinentry-qt and not pinentry-gtk. 
I'm using *-qt without problems since a couple of weeks. OTOH with 
pinentry-gtk not prompt was show because pinentry-gtk seems to have 
serious problems with non-ASCII characters (like the umlaut in my 
name). pinentry-qt also doesn't show any non-ASCII characters but at 
least it shows the other characters.

People shouldn't use Beta2 with the plugin. I installed the Beta2 RPMs 
at work and PGP/MIME with Beta2 simply sucks (no encrypt to self, super 
uncomfortable key selection dialog, a load of stupid questions, ...). 
If users try this they will get a completely wrong impression of the 
PGP/MIME support in KMail.

Regards,
Ingo
