Multiple Keyservers

I have an automatic script that I call from mutt to automatically
retrieve signing keys from a keyserver.

The keyserver in my options file is set to pgp.mit.edu

I wanted to know if it is possible to use multiple keyservers in my
query, so if the key is not registered with one server, I can search
others.

Not really sure if searching for keys in this fashion is a good idea. If
not, please advise with an explanation.

Script as below:

- -----

#!/bin/bash

/usr/bin/gpg    --no-default-keyring \
                --keyring mutt-pubring.gpg\
                --keyring pubring.gpg\
                --keyserver-options auto-key-retrieve "$@"

- -----

I am using GnuPG 1.0.7 (gnupg-1.0.7-7) on RedHat 7.3


Thanks

Ash
