My PGP setup is likely quite old now and I know that things have
changed somewhat. When I open an email in mutt it hangs for a while
as gnupg tries to import the public key in question. How do you have
your gnupg config set up now?

Does anyone even use GPG & Email these days?

I've been playing with it a bit lately for an encryption-at-rest experiment, and it's just too much hassle for ~0 benefit outside the at-rest part.


Having said that, have you checked if the keys have expired?


$ gpg --list-keys



I went online and looked for information on integrating mutt and pgp
and all of the information seemed quite old, and out of date.
Yeah, I imagine so.

I'm finally coming around to HTML email after all these years, and RoundCube web mail is pretty darned nice.

As much as I like CLI, I just couldn't consider it for email.


YMMV of course!


PS, this is a test to see if my messages are making it to the list, *and* I'm getting a copy of them too...
