New submission from Bernhard Herzog <[email protected]>:

The keyselector used in kmail tries to only allow keys usable for a given
purpose.  This doesn't work properly for certificates which have an
extendedKeyUsage that only contains clientAuth.  The attached file contains such
a certificate.  KMail lets the user select this certificate as an encryption
certificate even though it correctly disallows certificates that don't have
keyEncipherment in their keyUsage for instance.

When the a mail is sent and is to be encrypted with the attached certificate
gpgsm correctly rejects it.
