Note that you MUST start kmail in the _SAME_ environment that you previously
started gpg-agent in!
The easiest ist probably to test this is to login at a virtual console,
properly start gpg-agent there and then start X and KDE with startx.
I am using the following construct:
------------ cat /etc/X11/Xsession.d/90local_gpg-agent --------------
STARTGPG=
GPGAGENT=/usr/bin/gpg-agent
GPGAGENTARGS="--daemon"
#GPGAGENTARGS="--daemon --debug-all"
if grep -qs ^use-gpg-agent "$OPTIONFILE"; then
if [ -x "$GPGAGENT" ]; then
STARTGPG=yes
fi
fi
if [ -n "$STARTGPG" ]; then
if test -f $HOME/.gpg-agent-info && \
kill -0 `cut -d: -f 2 $HOME/.gpg-agent-info` 2>/dev/null; then
GPG_AGENT_INFO=`cat $HOME/.gpg-agent-info`
export GPG_AGENT_INFO
else
eval `$GPGAGENT $GPGAGENTARGS`
echo $GPG_AGENT_INFO >$HOME/.gpg-agent-info
fi
fi

(not from me but was on this list quite some time ago)
You make a new entry in "use-gpg-agent" in /etc/X11/Xsession.options.
The gnupg-agent maintainer did not like this solution, though :-/
And don't forget to _enable_ the OpenPGP plugins in the KMail settings!
