Hi,
I am new to this list, I have found a similar problem,
the trouble that I am having is that, when I use ^K, it fires up gpg, but
it does not give you a chance to see the output, therefore the only way to
check if the key has been added is by invoking gpg wiht --list-public-keys
For example, when I tried it on this message, as you suggest :), it did not
add the key. It found it alright, but I could not see what the error was,
after saving this to a file, and invoking gpg manually, I find:
gpg: key 6C620FC9: unsupported public key algorithm
gpg: key 6C620FC9: no valid user ids
gpg: this may be caused by a missing self-signature
gpg: Total number processed: 1
gpg: w/o user IDs: 1
and hence this wont have been added. It would be useful if the output was
caught somewhere, or an opitional pause was added, is this the case ?
