I had used the above -- obsolete/MIT distribution of PGP for some time. It is unfortunately, obsolete: it had a much better GUI than GnuPG, especially when you wanted to examine a key.
I think though that PGP has an assortment of different levels of support; the above being only valid through Level 6. someplace int he documentation I think I remember seeing that for the current GnuPG to support level 6 keys you have to set some kind of switches. dunno; i stopped researching this and switched entirely to GnuPG. I don't like GPA and I don't like Cleopatra either. In the first place you should need only 1 key-manager. Evidently GPA didn't cut it and so they tried Cleopatra and missed with that too no matter what matters to me is that I can install the GnuPG package and access it via ENIGMAIL -- which is a plug-in for the Thunderbird e/mail client this should be compatible with clients using Microsoft Mail with PGP desk-top: it is my understanding these things are supposed to be interoperable as PGP is supposed to be an open standard. how they got into this level/version problem with the keys is a bit of a mystery to me but I think somebody took a shortcut someplace /GW
