Obnoxious also. "gpg --batch --keyserver-options auto-key-retrieve" does the job, or clicking on a button within Thunderbird. If some people don't know how to fetch a public key from a signature, it's better not to trust encryption with them. Concerning key servers, unless in very specific cases, I think keys should be on big and commonly used keyservers which synchronize among themselves. Otherwise new signatures, IDs, and revocations will not get propagated when people refresh their keyring. -- Gabriel _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
