Hello,

I'm testing Espionage 3 to see if it fits my needs and I've found a problem. One my main usages of Espionage 2 is encrypt my mail (I use Sparrow) and Adium history. But both of these apps keeps its date in ~/Library/Application Support/ and when I try to encrypt them I get this error:

QuoteBad Folder
Encrypting the Library folder or anything inside of it can lead to problems. You can use FileVault to do that safely.

I understand that I've to manually unlock the folder prior to open the app but I can't to this if Espionage doesn't let me encrypt the folder. Is there a way to override this? Using FileVault in this case isn't an option since I need the folder to remain locked even after I logged in.

OK, this was an oversight, we should at least allow the user to override this warning. Please look for this ability in an upcoming update. Thank you for bringing this to our attention!
