I spent most of yesterday trying to find out why it wasn't working, ending up 
configuring Thunderbird and Enigmail to answer the message in question, so I 
haven't searched bug reports yet, nor initiated one.

The friend in question found that he suddenly couldn't decrypt messages that 
we exchange.   After doing whatever checks we could think of he created a new 
key and uploaded it to the keyservers (incidentally it looks as though 
keyservers don't propagate keys as well as they used to - sometimes you have 
to query quite a few to find a key).

After that I edited his account in my addressbook, telling it to use the new 
key.  When the send calls up the dialog for keys to use I saw that it still 
had the old key listed.  I used Change and entered the new key, then Sent.  My 
friend received it - but it was encrypted against the old key.

After a few tries, I changed his addressbook setting to Never encrypt.  One 
message actually got as far as telling me that I had not selected a key, so it 
would be sent unencrypted.  When he received it, it was encrypted with the old 
key.

I edited him out of Recent Addresses, and removed every instance of his 
address but one in KAddressBook - however, it looks as though every time I 
change the key in the Send dialog box it creates another copy, and that copy 
says the old key is to be used for encryption.

I suspect that it is using a cached copy somewhere, but that's sheer 
guesswork.

kdepim-libs-4.4.11.1-2.fc14.i686
kdepimlibs-akonadi-4.6.3-1.fc14.i686
kdepim-runtime-4.4.11.1-1.fc14.i686
kdepim-runtime-libs-4.4.11.1-1.fc14.i686
kdepimlibs-4.6.3-1.fc14.i686
kdepimlibs-devel-4.6.3-1.fc14.i686
kdepim-4.4.11.1-2.fc14.i686

I still have the problem.  Are those apparently mismatched version numbers 
correct?
