The only remaining problems I have with kmail and gpg is when someone has a huge multiply-signed key (like Marc Mutz), where even though I have his public key, it takes about 6 seconds just to process it on a Piii733. That is being worked on for the next release of kde by Ingo Klocker and Marc. Oh, and another random enhancement is making the gpg identity portion of kmail into a dropdown list rather than having to type it in, so that you can't mess it up like a lot of people (including me) do.... > That is when gpg times out.

Of course, if you add the options in your .gpg/options file that Chris was talking about, you won't have this problem either :-) But just to take the load of your sholders, I'm attaching my public key so you can just save and import it manually.
