I have never managed to use keyservers from GPG. Today I tried:

1) entering
- --keyserver http://keyserver.kjsl.com:80
in the gpg.conf-file
and then in a command window:

gpg --recv-keys <ingo.kloecker@epost.de>

GPG said I hadn't specified any keyserver ...

2) I tried:
gpg --keyserver http://keyserver.kjsl.com:80

GPG replied "Please enter your message:"

and then I entered:

- --recv-keys <ingo.kloecker@epost.de>

Nothing happened.

3) Then I tried:

- --recv-keys F661F608

I am using WindowsXP.
