Thanks, John. However, when I use the command "gpg --batch -ea -r keyid filename", I got an "encryption failed: unusable public key" error message.
Interestingly, when I use the command without batch mode like "gpg -ea -r keyid filename", I'm able to encrypt the file. So the batch mode is having problems. How can I encrypt the file using recipient public keyid correctly in batch mode?
