Hello,
i have a problem while encrypting a message. I'm using the OpenPGP Card
but i think the Problem doesn't depends on it.
I've got a an decrypted e-mail and if i try to encrypt the e-mail i got
a "gpg: public key decryption failed: wrong secret key used". The ID of
the used key is an ID an a subkey. Usualy I don't use the subkey for de-
and encryption, but i don't know anythink about the subkeys. According
to the GnuPG Handbook it should work to use the subkey.
Have a nice day and a good morning :),
Patrick
