It's mean that your pgp block is corrupt wink

Re: Problem trying to decrypt, unknown error

I've found a problem with firegpg following your suggestion..

if i paste the block on the text editor, and then i press decrypt, i can decrypt it without problems..

i am trying to decrypt an e-mail wich was sent from outlook express with gpgoe with GNUPG 1.4.7

this is how the block start:

-----BEGIN PGP MESSAGE-----
Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (MingW32)

but i found this:

if the header doesn't have this line "Comment: http://getfiregpg.org" after the version, it will not work.

But if i add it manually it can decrypt without problems for example:

-----BEGIN PGP MESSAGE-----
Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (MingW32)
Comment: http://getfiregpg.org


so maybe the problem is that the search of that string must be optional and not mandatory
