Yep... it worked! My problem was that I use GnomePGP, and it gets confused when the command-line utility presents an "are-you-sure" warning prompt. Now it still presents a warning, but it's non-interactive (RSA keys are deprecated). Thanx 4 the help! Well, now that I signed the guy's public key, I can send him back this info in order to slightly increase his credibility, can't I? (Not that he needs it that much). --------------550FB6145CE48E9E22750202 Content-Type: text/x-vcard; charset=us-ascii; name="jcastro.vcf" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Description: Card for Juan Carlos Castro y Castro Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="jcastro.vcf" begin:vcard n:Castro;Juan tel;work:55 (21) 540-9100 x-mozilla-html:FALSE url:http://www.appi.com.br/jcastro org:APPI Informática Ltda.;Desenvolvimento adr:;;Av.
