Older weak keys not displaying in key selection dialog #132

GpgOL doesn't, Kleopatra doesn't, GPA doesn't. So I'll keep using GpgOL for now, it's working fine. Waiting for OutlookPrivacyPlugin fix. Thank you. :-)

OutlookPrivacyPlugin doesn't directly use GnuPG. We recommend a user have GnuPG only to create and edit the key ring files. As such it's unlikely we will ever try and use the gpg.conf file.

What is it your attempting to accomplish by using this setting?

OutlookPrivacyPlugin cannot encrypt to those keys because it doesn't even see / show them in its dialog, unlike GpgOL. ;-)

I'm not doing any limiting of the type of keys displayed, so I think this is likely related to another bug regarding missing keys that don't have the key usage package included. A patch should be in the next build posted.
