I do have a backup of the private key, but it’s 1. out of reach at the moment and 2. it’s a pain to restore. So far, I’m still optimistic that the sender will eventually provide me with a message that I can decrypt. Thanks a lot for your explanations! PS: I’m toying with the idea of switching from my smart card to a Trezor hardware token. This would mean generating an entirely new key (only 256 bit ECC supported). OTOH there are several advantages such as the Trezor being a well documented open source device, and – of course – its size with integrated key pad solution. It also depends on whether I can get either a smart card reader or the Trezor to work with Termux/Android. _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
