Bug ID: 3336
Summary: Claws-Mail saves e-mails to Drafts, no way to disable
it
Classification: Unclassified
Product: Claws Mail
Version: 3.10.1
Hardware: PC
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: major
Priority: P3
Component: Plugins
Assignee: users at lists.claws-mail.org
Reporter: oyvinds at everdot.org
1) Use GnuPG
2) Compose e-mail
3) Watch Claws-Mail save your e-mail IN PLAINTEXT to the server you have
configured
4) Get your e-mail read by your e-mail provider
I am unable to find anywhere I can disable Claws-Mail from saving the e-mails
being composed to the "Drafts" folder. This is a major security problem and
makes Claws-Mail completely insecure when used with GnuPG.
Preferred behaviour would be to NEVER save your e-mails to "Drafts" when a
GnuPG key is configured for an account. An alternative solution could be to
save it as a message encrypted to yourself when saving to Drafts but I think
the best thing to do would be to not save messages to Drafts. This could be a
configuration option which is enabled by default if a GnuPG key is set.
There should probably be a configuration option to prevent it from saving
anything to "Drafts" every even for non-GnuPG users.
GnuPG+Claws-Mail is to be considered unsecure and compromized with the current
way it works.
