I don't see a bug here.

However, given that you use Posteo, you are in the good position to use
the Web Key Directory feature.  This requires 2.2.1 because we had to
add some workaround for key upload due to changes at Posteo which we
didn't caught earlier.  So people sending mail to you using a GnuPG 2.2
would find your key instantly.  It is not there right now:

  /usr/local/libexec/gpg-wks-client -v --check stefan.claas at posteo de
  gpg-wks-client: public key for 'stefan.claas at posteo.de' NOT found via WKD

You may use the latest Enigmail or Kmail to automate the upload but you
can also use Posteo's Web interface to upload the key.  But take care:
Posteo does not allow a Name in the user id, only the mail address
(addr-spec) is allowed.  Thus you need to add a second user id with just
your mailaddress and use gpg's filter stuff to export only that UID.
GnuPG 2.2.1 automates that tasks and creates another user if needed.

If you want to test this feature you may send a mail to clara.chefin at
posteo de, which is a test account of us.  (You can also write to the
owner of Posteo to ask him why they still have an invalid certificate
for posteo.net addresses ;-).
