I think you are right. I guess the msg.asc are meant to be dercypted in
a mail client and therefor it "fails" when its decrypted manually from
commandline.

If I encrypt and send a email to myself and decrypt it in mutt it
works perfectly but if I save the msg.asc and decrypt it manually I get
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable undecoded. So the problem is
seems mostly to be on the part of the receiver.

I think I have to convince my friends to get decent email clients =)

Thanks for your reply!
