So far as I am aware, you do not really need a gpg.rc file, or is it a .gpgrc? You do, however, need quite a bit in your .muttrc. This is the relevant portion of my .muttrc, which works just fine. I am using GnuPG, the open-source equivalent, but it should work the same. You will have to replace the email address associated with your PGP key, and your key code, (both are in parentheses below) but otherwise, you should be able to simply cut and paste this into your current .muttrc file and have secure email. You may test it on me if you wish. PGP email can be difficult to set up, but once working, it seems pretty stable.
