Re: Evolution - reply to an encrypted message

I use crypto a lot, and Evolution has done this for a long time. There
appear to be several legal ways to encrypt stuff, and while Evolution
can display most of them, it appears to only be able to
reply/forward-inline some of them.

What I do as a workaround is use Edit->Select all, then click Reply -
the selected text will be quoted, unencrypted, in the new message.

Interestingly, the latest version of Evolution that I'm using (2.30.3 on
10.10) doesn't reply properly to three out of four ordinary
*unencrypted* messages either, though I don't imagine it's related.
Instead it shows the quote introduction, followed by - nothing. No
quoted text. This appears to have something to do with the format of the
message being replied to, and I have to use the same workaround.

And a completely new issue (to me): When I double click in the taskbar
calendar to enter a new appointment, the calendar window opens on the
previous day! Absolutely repeatable.
