  Hi,

    as Marco d'Itri pointed out, mutt uses PGP/MIME to encrypt messages.
    In the past, KMail wasn't able to decrypt this kind of messages, but
    now there exists PGP/MIME support for KMail (see instructions to set
    it up in [1]). Also, as mutt now can send encrypted messages in
    INLINE format (the one KMail understands natively), you can ask any
    mutt user to send you encrypted or signed files in this format.

    Do you agree to close this bug?

  thanks,
