When I send PGP-encrypted e-mail using mutt to certain certain recipients, it takes me a selection menu to choose a particular key. In some cases there is only a single choice. Once selected, mutt issues the following diagnostic: "ID has undefined validity", and asks if I want to continue (with "no" as the default). After I confirm, it sends the e-mail out without problems.
What do I need to do to get mutt to just use the keys I have on hand and to not be so picky? And what do I need to tell GPG so that it will raise the trust level on these keys? Or how do I determine their "validity"? Also, I notice that if I for example enter a recpient name that is mispelled, that it will take me to the key selection screen -- but I couldn't find a way of telling it to stop looking, and to take me back to the "compose" window. The best that I came up with is control-c, which aborts the mutt session entirely, and deletes my new mail message. Is there a more elegant way to have handled this? -- Gary Funck
