Now this is interesting; I wonder if it's changed behavior with a
different version or something.
Running mutt 1.0, gnupg 1.0.0, and with no keyserver line in my
.gnupg/options, I get signature checking that runs fast, and
validates correctly if I have they key on my keyring already. All
adding the keyserver line to .gnupg/options seems to change is
making it try to automatically fetch the key if it doesn't already
have it.
