User-Agent: Opera/8.5 (X11; Linux i686; U; de) Build Identifier: Thunderbird 1.0 and 1.5 Dear Friends, First I would like to thank you for this beautiful programme. I always sign my emails and mainly send them with S/MIME encryption. This means, I encrypt for all addressees for whom I have certificates. While the menu point Tools/Account Settings/Security/Default encryption settings ... offers to choose between „Never“ and „Required“ I would like to propose two additional choices, “Priority” and “If possible”. The following rules should apply: Priority: The email will always be encrypted when a certificate is available for the addressee(s); (if certificates are not available for at least one addressee the email must never be encrypted). In the second case ("If possibile") a warning prompt will be shown asking the user: 1.)Encrypt the email if possible? (The unencrypted email will not be sent to all other addressees!) 2.)Send the email unencrypted to all addressees? 3.)Cancel? Another way would be – as with "kmail“ – to mark the addresses in the address book whether emails should be encrypted (S/MIME and GnuPG ?) or not. Selection similar as for sending in text or HTML format. Cheers! Peter Reproducible: Always
