Package: enigmail
Version: 1.7.2-3
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

Signed emails with GPG using latest evolution (3.12.9~git20) from Jessie repos.

Installed icedove and enigmail from Jessie repos.

Enigmail was claiming that the emails I sent had a bad signature.

Other mail readers I tried (mutt, gnus, sylpheed and evolution) all said the signatures were good.

I then uninstalled the debian jessie version of enigmail and installed the latest version of enigmail (1.8.2) using the add on manager from within icedove.

After doing this everything worked fine.  Enigmail reported the emails as having good signatures.
