[Pkg-mozext-maintainers] Bug#791350: enigmail: autodecryption success/error results shown at top of wrong message

Package: enigmail
Version: 2:1.7.2-3
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

When auto-decrypting incoming mail for notification purposes, the coloured bar
is shown at the top of the currently viewed message, no matter what the
currently-viewed message is.

For example, I can have a mail open in one account, and when an encrypted mail
comes in to a second account, it gets auto-decrypted (using gpg-agent) and the
results of the decryption and signature verification are displayed at the top
of whatever message I'm currently viewing. This can potentially cause an
unsigned or unencrypted message to appear signed/crypted, or a badly-signed
message to appear properly signed.

See attached screenshot.

Andrew.
