I have recently switched from Thunderbird to neomutt and so far 'fairly' good in terms of things being in working order. I have based my muttrc on an example layout that I found on github:
by Javier Lopez. His setup was last updated in 2017.
I have come to realize that a number of use flags have since changed in mutt/neomutt since Javier's last edit. For one I believe I may have run into the following issue since I get the same "cannot copy message" error when trying to read an encrypted email:
muttrc template
The Gnupg section in the above muttrc (lines 252-285) I have used nearly verbatim. My modifications have included:
1) line 262 now has my key id
2) line 257 has been commented out since it appears to be deprecated in more recent versions of mutt/neomutt.
Can someone kindly recommend how I should modernize the Gnupg section to do the following:
1) Automatically attempt to decrypt and show an email that was sent encrypted.
2) When responding to an email that was sent encrypted, automatically reply with an encrypted email.
3) When composing an email, show a menu option to encrypt the email; or automatically encrypt the email if the individual's public key is stored in my keychain.
Any guidance on the above would be extremely appreciated!
