A P.S. to the last message. I added the above lines and tried again, and neither refreshing a key from the keyserver, uploading a key, nor downloading a new key cause the "clean" to run. I must be doing something silly in the set-up. I created a new file in the same directory as gpg.exe (OK?) called gpg.conf (OK?) and added to it *exactly* your lines above (not line wrapped in the case of the third line. I exited Thunderbird, restarted, and tried the keyserver procedures above. No joy. Does that sound correct? Maybe it doesn't work via Enigmail? I'm using GPG 1.4.2 via Enigmail 0.92.0.0. I checked the doc file I got with GPG 1.4.2 and whilst it lists the import/export-options "clean" command there is no equivalent key-server-option "clean" command listed - this may just be an oversight in the doc file, of course. I'll away and try exporting my keyring to see what happens. Regards, Bob
