Kevin -- ...and then Kevin Coyner said... % % I've recently installed mutt and loving it. Now I'm taking a stab at % getting my GnuPG key associated with mutt, verifying sigs, etc.
Good deal! % % I've got it working such that I can send my signature and send % encrypted, but for some reason I can't verify the sigs of others. Well, I'm not entirely sure of that... % % Here's what I have in my .muttrc regarding PGP verify sig: % % set pgp_verify_sig = yes # auto verify incoming signed msgs Right. % % And in my ~/.gnupg/options I have: % % keyserver search.keyserver.net That looks good, although it may or may not be up... That, however, doesn't really have anything to do with verifying sigs; it has to do with fetching keys. Now, if you don't have the key you can't verify the sig, but it makes sense to separate the two tasks. % % My gut feel is the the line I have in the 'options' file for keyserver % is what the problem is. Are you using the fresh, new 1.0.7 or something earlier? If you're at the latest, then you must add keyserver-options auto-key-retrieve to your options file to have gpg download the keys automatically. % % Could someone please verify if the keyserver entry and syntax I'm using % is correct, and if not, then suggest a correct version? That looks good, but other possibilities include keyserver wwwkeys.eu.pgp.net #keyserver wwwkeys.us.pgp.net #keyserver wwwkeys.uk.pgp.net #keyserver wwwkeys.pgp.net #keyserver certserver.pgp.com #keyserver pgp.ai.mit.edu #keyserver keyserver.net #keyserver search.keyserver.net #keyserver pgp.dtype.org #keyserver gnv.us.ks.cryptnet.net #keyserver ldap://horowitz.surfnet.nl:11370 #keyserver x-hkp://gnv.us.ks.cryptnet.net:11371 #keyserver ldap://pgp.surfnet.nl:11370 #keyserver blackhole.pca.dfn.de #keyserver gnv.us.ks.cryptnet.net (pulled from my options file). % % Thanks % Kevin HTH & HAND :-D -- David T-G * It's easier to fight for one's principles (play) [EMAIL PROTECTED] * than to live up to them. -- fortune cookie (work) [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.justpickone.org/davidtg/ Shpx gur Pbzzhavpngvbaf Qrprapl Npg!
