GpgOL: Activate "Prefer S/MIME" does not work
Open, HighPublic

Description

It looks like the S/MIME settings (activate/prefer) are ignored:

  • Regardless of activation, decryption seems to work and pinentry shows up for the smime key
  • Regardless of preference, openpgp keys are used

To reproduce the activation issue:

  1. Deactivate smime
  2. Kill background processes and restart Outlook
  3. Open a smime mail => pinentry shows up and mail is decrypted

To reproduce the preference issue:

  1. Make sure you have both secret openpgp and smime certs (I tested with ted)
  2. Deactivate "Always show security approval dialog"
  3. Activate "Prefer S/MIME"
  4. Kill background processes and restart Outlook (just to be sure)
  5. Send an encrypted/signed mail => always openpgp encrypted/signed

Note: I had both secret openpgp and smime keys of ted/edward in keyring and both accounts in outlook added, if that matters
