After first doing a "p" "s" and then "p" "e", I get the same response
when I send the message.

pgpring -5 gives the following colon delimited output. I only have one
key in my keyring so this is the total output.
fread: Success
pub:n:1023:17:C8EA6B35BAEF3EBE:1997-10-09::::My Buddy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
fread: Success
I'm not sure if its in the right format or not. What appears to be the
keyID looks a little formidble. I wonder why there isn't a -6 option
for pgpring?
Can anybody me if mutt should be able to correctly parse the above
string?

Yes, I've started to play around with it but I'd like to get PGP working
first. I currently use Outlook for sending encrypted mails using PGP
and I'd like to stick to PGP for the time being until I'm more
comfortable with GPG.
Cheers,
Rod
