PGP encrypted mail sent from MS Outlook are not displayed decrypted

[Traxter]

Binary package hint: evolution

This is a resubmit of a bug that was invalidated because the submission was made too long ago. The bug was never fixed and I'm therefore creating a new bug report since the problem still exists and is very annoying. Please note that I was encouraged by the moderator here (don't remember his name) to resubmit the bug report.

Environment:
Ubuntu 7.10 (amd64), Evolution 2.12.1, GnuPG 1.4.6

Problem:
It works fine to send GPG encrypted mails from Evolution to MS Outlook or to another Evolution client, but when an email sent from MS Outlook encrypted with PGP Desktop then Evolution can not parse the message and thereby does not decrypt and display the message. I have no problems with reading encrypted emails sent from another evolution client so there is nothing wrong my keys. I expected the messages in the emails to be displayed but the received emails from MS Outlook are instead displayed like this in evolution:

************* Bug submitters note: the content that evolution displays starts below this line *************
Could not parse PGP/MIME message
gpg: armor header: Version: PGP Desktop 9.8.2 (Build 3005)
gpg: public key is 004BEC3A
gpg: encrypted with RSA key, ID 004BEC3A
gpg: decryption failed: secret key not available
************* Bug submitters note: content ended on the previous line *************

The entire email looks like like this (I have put X's in the ip- and email-addresses):

************* Bug submitters note: full email starts below this line *************
