[SOLVED] Evolution - can't sign with PGP Key (OpenKeyChain)

#1 Post by user2635 »

I'm trying to send a message for the first time and trying to sign with my PGP key, but I get an error message: https://pasteboard.co/GGoGpBo.png

I think this is the problem:

1. I imported the key from my Android (OpenKeyChain) to Seahorse 3.20.0
2. It doesn't appear on my 'Show Personal View'
3. It showed my my 'Show any' so I went into the entry, ticked it as trusted so I can make it show on 'Show Trusted'
2. I assume I can use the same key on Linux
3. I try to sign the email but it doesn't work

Can someone help?

This was solved when I followed the correct way to import the OpenKeyChain key:
