GnuPG Smartcard and Authentication Key

[Volker Dormeyer]

Hello all,

recently I received a message which is encrypted with my public
authentication key instead of my encryption key.

I wonder how this can happen, because I thought GnuPG does not use the
authentication key as encryption key. Am I wrong?

Further, I am not able to decrypt the message. I tried it manually with
"--try-all-secrets", but it doesn't seem to work. Basically it should
work. I mean, I have the authentication private key.

Can somebody give me a hint?

Thanks and regards,
Volker
