Hi there, When I check the box 'Always sign messages when replying to a signed message' in the Preferences > Privacy section, replies to signed messages are still not signed automatically, even though Claws prints that my correspondent's message has a "Good signature" in the status bar. Keep up the good work!
The option works fine for me. How many accounts do you have? Do they all have this option set? Could it be that the account is switched (manually or automatically) and the account which is switched to does not have this option set?
This is my only account on Claws. And I'm afraid I don't know what a switched account is… could you explain it?
What is your account's 'Default privacy system'? (We'll leave general questions for the users' mailing list or IRC)
It's PGP inline.
But setting to 'PGP/MIME' or 'None' doesn't change anything.
You have to activate the 'Sign' menu item manually?
Yes. And my messages are not signed if I don't.
What's the output of the following? grep sign_ ~/.claws-mail/accountrc
default_sign_reply=1
It works for me and I don't see how it could fail. There's not really an debug output around the option, but if you can apply a patch and build, then I can send you a patch to gather more debug info. Otherwise, while you are alone in having this failure, this is very likely to be closed as WORKSFORME.
I can't see why it fails either! But yes, I can build a patched version.
Update: I launched the program from command line (I should've done this firsthand…) and whenever I choose 'Reply' to a signed message I get the following debug message: (claws-mail:24268): Claws-Mail-WARNING **: can't open signature file: '/home/olivier/.signature'

That is not the GnuPG signature but a standard email signature typically appended to each message you send.
