Hi, thanks for the investigation. I would not expect it to be it. The manual says to "use the left/right angles for exact matches on email address", not really that being a "usual use" (I understand the two as different things). I also believe, and agree with you, that Evolution (or libcamel) does a correct thing. > It seems like there is a bug in GnuPG 2.1.18 which has not been > fully resolved [6]? I agree, it really looks like a bug on the GnuPG side, but not necessarily the [6]. It can claim that a key was not found (which is correct, after all), but it should be able to download the key even when the recipient is enclosed in angles. I think the code to auto- fetch keys should be fixed here. Unfortunately, I do not know how to debug whether the GnuPG tried to fetch the address, maybe it did, but left there the angles, which could result in "key not found" response from the key server. I'd suggest you to start a discussion on the GnuPG side. They may shed some light on this.
