Hi!  What encryption algorithm do we use in OpenPGP

It depends a lot on how you have GnuPG configured and how your recipient's certificate is configured.

For asymmetric encryption, either RSA or Elgamal will be used.

For symmetric encryption, one of Twofish, AES256, AES192, AES128, Camellia256, Camellia192, Camellia128, CAST5-128, Blowfish, IDEA or 3DES will be used.
