I have a problem with decrypting my sent messages.
Been expermenting with gnupg. When I send a signed and encrypted
message to someone who has my key they get it and can read it fine
and I have their key and can decrypt an encrypted message from them.
But when I go to my *Sent* box click on a encripted message that I
sent, I cannot decrypt it? Heres the error.
gpg: decryption failed: secret key not available
Does this mean I don't have access to my own secret key?

New to this, any ideas?

Hey Mike, you guessed correctly. This is the way the program works. 
Supposedly you should  still have access to the original message before 
it was encrypted.

Thanks Charles,
thought I might of had something configured wrong. I'll look into
having a copy before it was encrypted.
