What Windows version do you use? I've never seen that this step is
needed and I tested it on 98 and XP.
What is the error or why do you think you have to copy it to this
place also?

What does this exactly means?

gpgexch.dll can be stored at any place. regsvr32 stores the path of
the current directory in the registry for you.

If you enabled 'GPGExch' in the Outlook Extension dialog, you just
need to click on the new tabbed pane 'GnuPG' and set the gpg binary.

Currently only WinPT is supported for key management. Just enter the
WinPT path plus --keymanager. Example "c:\winpt\winpt.exe --keymanager".

The plugin is currently in a beta stadium. When we release the first
stable version, it will contain more documentation how to use and to
install it.
Anyway I guess it's also a good idea to provide some more details for
the beta version right now.
