 Hi 
  
 Summary: You are correct. Use Kleopatra directly instead. 
  
 It seems it is correct that loading the GnuPG settings module in KMail 
 doesn't 
 work. 
  
 But please note that the GnuPG settings module is just a component from 
 Kleopatra, so all the same settings can be reached using Kleopatra (and 
 they 
 all configure the same GnuPG on your system). 
  
 It also seems like it is an upstream bug that has been fixed in later 
 upstream 
 versions (by doing stuff quite much differently in the 25.04 and later 
 series) 
  
 Sorry for the inconvenience.
