Hi

A friend on the pgpnet mailing list is using a hushmail.com gpg key but
when I import it, I get:

C:\Users\Sean Rima>gpg --import < test.txt
gpg: key C4E23A82: accepted non self-signed user ID
""*********@hushmail.com" <---- at hushmail.com>"
gpg: key C4E23A82: public key ""---- at hushmail.com" <jefallen at hushmail.com>"
imported
gpg: Total number processed: 1
gpg:               imported: 1  (RSA: 1)


If I edit the key, I see:

pub     0s/C4E23A82  created: 2010-01-07  expires: never       usage: SC
[ unknown] (1). "------ at hushmail.com" <------ at hushmail.com>


I see there is no encrytion subkey.

If I look at the key with --list-packets, I see

C:\Users\Sean Rima>gpg --list-packets < test.txt

Am i missing something here with this key?

I am using gpg2.0.12 (waiting for gpg4win to be compiled to latest)
