Well, not quite, and that was making a difference!
My setting of set pgp_getkeys_command in gpg.rc is empty, while his was
set pgp_getkeys_command="gpg --recv-keys %r"
The "screen corruption" was due to the output of this command.
Workaround:
set pgp_getkeys_command="gpg --recv-keys %r > /dev/null 2>&1"
Is that something mutt should take care of automatically (unexpected
output of some commands, that is)?
