Okay, that much makes sense now. I would suggest adding: cipher-algo 3DES ... to your .gnupg/gpg.conf file. This is a sledgehammer solution, and not one I'd generally recommend; however, the downsides are pretty minimal. Then encrypt a message using their public key and send it on to them. If they can read it, great. If they can't, then the problem is their proprietary implementation of OpenPGP is shoddy. Incidentally, if your customer is a telecommunications firm, I think I may know the implementation they're using and some of its more egregious misfeatures. Other than that one and PGP Corporation's offering, though, I have no experience with proprietary OpenPGP offerings. _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
