You shouldn't need to worry about changing the preferred order. GPG will determine the most compatible combination of ciphers and hashes based on the keys used to encrypt messages. For example, my preferred symmetric cipher is AES-256, but on a certain mailing list I'm on encrypted messages sent there use Triple-DES because of the preferences/limitations of other recipients' keys. That's all the settings I listed were, an order of preference and not forcing one particular algorithm to the exclusion of all else. Regards, Ben
