GPG / KMail

[Christoph Fabianek <fabianek@cs.utk.edu>]

Hi,

I tried to setup KMail with crypto support and ran into the following problem 
when I went through the KMail OpenPGP and PGP/MIME HOWTO at kmail.kde.org
(I run testing/unstable, gpg version 1.2.2 and all the necessary libraries are 
installed):

Testing GnuPG with this command in the shell:
echo "test" | gpg -ase -r 0xE07C2E56 | gpg

gives the following error
gpg: can't connect to `/tmp/gpg-pA8u3N/S.gpg-agent': Connection refused

and I can enter the passphrase only at the console but no message window is 
shown. Does anyone know what's the problem with my configuration? (I have 
recently played around a while to get wlan running on my laptop and perhaps I 
have messed up things there, but neither on mailinglists nor on google I 
found the answer to the problem yet...)

Thanks for any help,
   Christoph
