I have recently switched ISP, but I also upgraded Thunderbird at the same time.

Now when I get a gpg signed e-mail, I supposedly can check the pen? and it
will offer to download the key, giving me a choice of keyservers. I
generally pick random.sks.keyserver.penguin.de

But now, when I do that, it just buzzes around and never downloads the key.
I looked at my firewall, and it is not blocking it. I tried it manually with

 gpg --keyserver keyserver.kjsl.com --recv-key 0xF621EDAD

for example, and it worked fine.

Is this a known problem? Or should I find a Thunderbird newsgroup to ask?
And if so, which one?
