Well, since I made the question, I must agree with that point of view, since my concern was -being the receiving end- how to modify my preferences without making my key unusable or at least, less-usable. However, it is true I should not give for granted I will always receive messages using my preferences (and that is the reason why I finally added the IDEA library to my GPG... just in case... but I don't intend to use it). I almost forgot the cipher-algo command, since when I saw it is a very good way to produce a message the recipient can't decrypt... but well, without changing anything, there is always the option somebody can send me a message using whirlpool... I am trying to say, while the cipher-algo thing was not what I was asking for, it is not a bad thing to remember people, from time to time, the sender can manage to send messages useless for the receiver... > No, but they may be operating on the assumption their preference list > matters.

I didn't understand the "cap set" concept, or at least, the meaning of these words (I think probably is due my lack of vocabulary...).
