piping the above mail to gpg2 (2.1.19) gives:

If I had to guess, Id say the sender of those messages is using ECC keys.
 They are only supported in GnuPG 2.1.  In fact, Im using such a key to
sign this message (but my key also has a DSA subkey, so gpg 2.0 should
still verify the signature). So, you may see the warning on this message.

If I had to guess, Id say the sender of those messages is using ECC keys.
 They are only supported in GnuPG 2.1.  In fact, Im using such a key to
sign this message (but my key also has a DSA subkey, so gpg 2.0 should
still verify the signature). So, you may see the warning on this message.

They are probably signed with elliptic curve keys which are not supported by 
the version of libgcrypt used in that version of gnupg IIRC.

Unknown key type

Can someone please explain why I am getting a yellow bar on  a LOT of
signed msgs saying that the key type is unknown??

the exact msg is "Part of the message signed with unknown key; the key
type is not supported by your version of GnuPG"

I am running GnuPG 2.0.30 (Gpg4Win 2.3.3) on a win 7 box.
