I need to clarify this: 1) By forcing the ID in .gnupg/options, I AM able to properly sign messages. 2) However, if I want to send self-encrypted messages, I have to specify the key ID. If I specify a user id, GPG wants to use my old, expired public key. This despite the fact that it's disabled (indeed, if I disable the old key, GPG exits with a failure if I try to encrypt to my own user id). --Chris --qMm9M+Fa2AknHoGS Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.1 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iEYEARECAAYFAjjQLaoACgkQfrrCpthD+UZNsACg7ZLNVgxCIJtsSvbkSUIS59Ab 1L0An1AafBmd1hSwJSf7Ex3PGtUDR3Pb =h0GI -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --qMm9M+Fa2AknHoGS--
