I fiddeled around gpgme. Starting a gpg-agent via .xsession or
something similar is ok. I have to start it in a vt, where pinentry
doesn't work correctly. I can't send signed messages, because there
is no chance to tell the gpg-agent my passphrase. Maybe I've
overseen something

Else I found a signature info like:
[-- Begin signature information --]
Error getting key information: Ambiguous name
[-- End signature information --]

which is print correct without gpgme.

Not that all, we have to explain the users on how to use gpgme.  For
me I did not really understand the use of gpgme in relation to
mutt-ng. What are the advantages and how to use them? But maybe
somone can enlighten me ;)
