Yes, it's fixed. Giving a wrong passphrase shows the current message
still encrypted, but each time you select that or another encrypted
message again, you'll be prompted for the passphrase. When the phrase is
okay, then it's stored and no further prompts will occur.
(Well, if you don't select "remember password" in the settings, then you
anyway won't have that problem. But that's no solution for somebody with
mostly encrypted mails.)
