OK! I got creative and pretty much re-write my ~/.mutt/gpg.rc, ct now contains the following:

The rest of the blocks I have created, I tried to ensure there were no duplicate or contrary settings. As it stands, when I try to read encrypted mail with mutt I get the following message (after my password): "Invoking PGP..." and then the message almost immediately switches to "Could not copy message" and the encrypted messages remains unopened. So that's where it stands right now, I've gotten further then before in that I am no longer getting the "bad passphrase" error as I was before. *EDIT* Check that, I tried to sign this mail and it failed, say hello to my little friend "bad passphrase." -- > A: Yes. > >Q: Are you sure? > >>A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. > >>>Q: Why is top posting frowned upon? > http://xkcd.com/84/ | http://xkcd.com/149/ > GPG: D5B20C0C (6741 8EE4 6C7D 11FB 8DA8 9E4A EECD 9A84 D5B2 0C0C) -----------------------------------------------------------------------
