- gpg-agent is *not* the secure solution since it is part of the gnupg-1.9.x package. Guilty by association.

- Inline OpenPGP should be the *default* (not depreciated) until gnupg-1.9.x becomes stable/secure.

- For poor hapless end-users who just want encryption to work with minimal effort:

1) Click Settings --> Configure kmail... --> Identities
2) Click on your account
3) Click Modify
4) Click Cryptography
5) Select Preferred crypto message format: Inline OpenPGP (depreciated)
