Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kdepim

If I have an message that is encrypted for OpenPGP keys A B and C,
and I do have private keys of A and B,
then kmail will always ask me for passhprase to key A, even if key B is already "opened" (cached passpharse).

1. have email  encrypted for OpenPGP keys A B and C
2. have private key of A and B
3. open that email in kmail
4. you are asked for passprhrase for A
5. cancel it
6. you are asked for passprhrase for B
7. enter it
8. message is decrypted
so far all is ok, but the problem is:

9. select again this email or other similar email
10. you are asked for passphrase to A
11. cancel it
12. message is decrypted (using key B)

Insted, expected result would be to skip step 10 and 11
