New description:
On sending a pgp encrypted message, when mutt cannot find the pgp key
in my public keyring, it prompts for the key ID of the key to use and/or
it brings up a menu of all pgp keys (if not found) and I have to select
one. If I then change my mind, there is no way to exit from this menu,
even though at the top of the screen it has "option q:exit"
If a key does exist but has expired, mutt won't let me select it
and won't let me exit the menu. I just get stuck in the PGP menu until
I select somebody else's key or press ctrl-C to kill mutt.
I've tried configurations with gpg and pgp and both do the same,
and I've also tried upgrading to 1.5.3i (2002-12-17).
There should be a way to exit from this menu nicely if the whole
'get the public key' routine fails for whatever reason.
Thanks for a great mail client!
