Hi Per,

I doubt you need the "http://" prefix in the options file. Try it
without it.

I don't think the MAN page has been updated (specially for GnuPG
1.2.x), but it doesn't mention keyserver-options . However it says:

- --no-auto-key-retrieve
This option disables the automatic retrieving of keys from a
keyserver while verifying signatures. This option allows to keep a
keyserver in the options file or the --send-keys and --recv-keys
commands.

So my guess is that GnuPG automatically retrieves public keys from a
keyserver if it's been specified in the options file.

Can anyone verify this ?
