Hi Thorsten,

Yes and no.

Yes and no.  :-)


I use muttgpg (the script) for a couple of reasons:
 * I get access to both mutt-pubring.gpg and pubring.gpg
   (Which admittedly is just a simple change to your suggestion above)
 * I can run gpg easily as mutt would run it, and do keyring
   maintenance and the like.
 * If I want to change how mutt interacts with GnuPG I can do it in
   one place rather than editing 13(?) seperate commands in my mutt
   config.  This is tantamount to admitting that I don't trust myself
   to make the changes correctly everywhere!  :-)=20


Effectively the script makes my life easier (and it doesn't hurt the
ego to see someone else getting some benefit from it!)


Cheers,

S.
