You are correct I am sure, as I become more familiar with Mutt and gnupg I suspect that I won't need these programs. I only use them when I am to lazy to man mutt/ man gpg :) > Have you made sure that your key is in the secret keyring, too?

What you say makes sense though and I will give it a try. What I have found is this: I made a copy of gpg.rc from /usr/share/doc/packages/mutt and put it in /etc/Muttrc. I then removed all the "--comments ''" from the settings. I sent myself a signed/encrypted mail and it seems to work now. I have also sent to a few others and they reply that it is encrypted as well, so it seems that I making some progress with it. I can encrypt files and sign them from the command line ok, so this problem seems to have been not knowing how to correctly configure Muttrc for gnupg.

I will try to do it today, but wife is due home in a few minutes and my computing time drops drastically once that happens.
