Some strange things have happened: first: on the interactive sks-keyservers.net page I looked up the key A18A54D6 and it did not show any result. Afterwards I typed olson grant and got several keys listed but not the one we have been looking for here A18.... second: I have seahorse as the gui tool to enter keyservers and keys. However, I removed any other keyserver but pool.sks-keyservers.net. After that I type your suggestion: gpg --search-keys A18A54D and to my surprise it still looked up wwwkeys.eu.pgp.net with no result. This leaves us with two questions: 1. why do I not get a response for A18A54D6 on sks-keyservers.net? 2. where do we have to tune gpg and evolution on ubuntu 10.10 to look for the correct keyserver?
