Use preferred/main keyring from Mailvelope

[Frederick888]

Currently Roundcube uses the unique user id as the keyring identifier in Mailvelope integration. However, as I use GnuPG with YubiKey, it's impossible for me to import my private key into the Roundcube keyring and there doesn't seem to be a way of wiring the GnuPG keys into other keyrings in Mailvelope, either.

Is it possible to allow users to select the main/preferred keyrings from Mailvelope? I think it could also be more convenient for users in some cases if they simply want to share the same keys for different users/websites.

At the time of writing that code, the Mailvelope API didn't allow access to the main keyring. I'll check if that changed in the meantime...

@thomascube Ah yeah, indeed its client API doesn't allow accessing the main and GnuPG keyrings. The identifiers of these 2 keyrings are localhost|#|mailvelope and localhost|#|gnupg respectively however in the client content script, it's explicitly banned providing host as part of the identifier.

It's probably a design for better security but I think there should be a setting available to make them, especially the GnuPG one, accessible to client API consumers. I guess I can file an issue there to see how the Mailvelope developers think.

The mailvelope_main_keyring option already is implemented. I think this ticket should be now to make it available to the user through Preferences.

Implemented.
