Yes, Stephan, that seems to have solved the issues I had with verification. The command you suggested does not work as you wrote it - I got words to the effect that the command was not recognised. After consulting man gpg2, I tried the following and this worked. gpg2 --import --import-options keep-ownertrust ~/path-to-my-key/mykey.sec.asc Thanks, Philip _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
