when replying to a signed Email, my response Mail is automatically set to be signed by me.

Are you doing that via $crypt_replysign or via some other method? Are you replying to a PGP-signed message to an S/MIME message? The behavior you are describing below is not normal, so I suspect something more is going on.

The pgp line concerning my key says

"sign as: <default>"

The compose menu will display this when $pgp_sign_as is unset. In that case, Mutt will use the value in $pgp_default_key, or what is configured in your gpg.conf. If neither of those are set, then I'm guessing this is the error returned by GPGME when it tries to sign with no key defined.

Unsetting and then resetting Security to "sign" results in the line

"sign as: 0xA1XXXXXX"

with the value of my Hex pgp Key configured in my .muttrc as

"set pgp_sign_as = 0xA1XXXXXXX"

and everything works as expected.

That's the part that makes no sense to me. Simply unsetting and resetting "sign" will just display the value of $pgp_sign_as. Did something else happen in your workflow?

Also, what version of Mutt are you using?
