Error while saving draft - The configured key ID '0xTypeError: RNPLib is undefined' cannot be found on your keyring.

Hello Folks!

I recently attempted to install an OpenPGP key in Thunderbird. I had difficulties to figure out what exactly was expected from me and cancelled the installation. If I check for OpenPGP Key Manager there is nothing listed.

Now when I try to save a message as draft I get an error message: Error while saving draft - The configured key ID '0xTypeError: RNPLib is undefined' cannot be found on your keyring.

This is only happening for the account for which I started the process of installing a OpenPGP key. Other accounts that I have setup in Thunderbird are not suffering from that problem (e.g. I can save drafts). In the End-to-End Encryption settings for the account where I started the process I can't see any changes. It looks like the End-to-End Encryption settings for any other account where drafts do work.

What can I do to identify the files that contain keyring information that were never finalised?

Thanks for a short answer in advance.

Salut, 

 Mathias

I found the reason. In my prefs.js was one line: user_pref("mail.identity.id1.openpgp_key_id", "TypeError: RNPLib is undefined"); After I removed that line I was able to store drafts for main account again.

I think that the unsuccessful installation attempt of OpenPGP had left that entry in the file.

I should have mentioned I am using Thunderbird 78.2.2 (32 bit).
