Erm... I know(?) GPG is meant to use a subkey "where possible" (ie. if a signing subkey exists it will use it, if an encryption subkeys exists it will use it), but is it meant to exhibit the same behaviour as PGP in that it will use the newest subkey if not explicitly told not to? -- Alphax | /"\ Encrypted Email Preferred | \ / ASCII Ribbon Campaign OpenPGP key ID: 0xF874C613 | X Against HTML email & vCards http://tinyurl.com/cc9up | / \
