no, this is not the case. if my default option is "always sign and encrypt"
and there is no public key for the recipient i get an error message saying
"no pgppublickey key found for ..." and the mail is not being sent. this is
not what i meant. i thought about an default option which encrypts *if
possible* and in all other cases/for all other recipients just signs the
message.

the idea behind this (as in the other bug i filed regarding pgp) is making
the usage of pgp easier. i, as many other people, don´t have pgp-keys for
all of my contacts because not everybody uses pgp. nevertheless i want all
outgoing mail to be encrypted for people using pgp without having to remind
me for every recipient wether he or she uses pgp or not so that i can set
the encrypt-option appropriately.
