There was a discussion about `read-passwd' accepting RET as a
passphrase character here recently. It seems as if lazy-lock can cause
this.
However, I have never used lazy-lock, and I get this buggy
`read-passwd' behaviour from time to time anyway. O well, maybe it is
worth a try for some of the others that reported this. (The bug in
`read-passwd' is triggered when you change XEmacs frames, somehow. It is
difficult to reproduce.)

Subject: bug #436809 (mailcrypt accepts "enter" as a passphrase char)
"FIXED"
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Brian emailed me this week about a bug report I sent directly to him,
but is also covered in Sourceforge bug #436809. (Did I write that?) The
short of it is: when you try to enter your passphrase, mailcrypt
accepts Enter/Return as a character. This past summer I fixed the
problem and promptly forgot about it.
After getting Brian's email I poked around to try and figure out what
I did, and found a comment (GASP!) in my ~/.emacs. Here it is:
;;; Here we setup font-lock (ie: syntax highlighting)...
;;; *WARNING* lazy-lock breaks mailcrypt (can't use 'Return' key)
;(add-hook 'font-lock-mode-hook 'turn-on-lazy-lock)
;(setq lazy-lock-stealth-time nil)
So, if this happens to you, disable lazy-lock. If that doesn't work,
then you have bigger problems. :)
No, I haven't looked to see where the conflict is in the two packages,
and I probably never will. fast-lock is working just peachy for me.
