Did you properly configure the plugins? About the passphrase problem:=20
Please use pinentry-gtk if pinentry-qt doesn't work for you (which=20
seems to be the case). Please run to following command in a terminal=20
where you started gpg-agent resp. where the GPG_AGENT_INFO environment=20
variable is known:
  echo Test | gpg --clearsign
Does this work?

BTW, you are obviously using KMail 1.5. Please update to KMail 1.5.2=20
(KDE 3.1.2).

Did you actually get a chance to enter your passphrase? This is not=20
clear to me. If your passphrase contains non-ASCII characters then this=20
might be a reason.

Again, please check the configuration of the _plugin_. Most of the=20
settings on the OpenPGP page only affect the built-in OpenPGP support.
