Hello,

could you explain how I can reproduce this issue ?

I have gpg 1.4.6 and kgpg 1.2.2

I tried but can't reproduce this problem.
My steps:
- i go to the editor
- i write something
- i click "encrypt"
- i select more than 3 recipients
- there are two cases : the option "Hide user id" is selected or is not selected

First case: "Hide user id" is NOT selected
When I want to decrypt, gpg will automatically detect if I have a secret key that will decrypt the message (because all userid are stored in the encrypted message)
If I have a good key, kgpg asks me to give the password and decrypt the message.
If I don't have any key, kgpg will fail.

Second case: "Hide user id" is selected
When I want to decrypt the message, gpg will try with every secret keys in my keyring until it can decrypt the message.

Thanks
