Thanks for helping. The next problem is arising.

I created a RSA-legacy key pair version with PGP 8.1 for testing.

The tree structure consists of 3 three entries:

- Full name <email>            RSA legacy key pair
  |
  + Full name <email>          User ID
    |
    + Full name <email>        RSA exportable signature

When I try to sign the first or second entry the PGP already says 
"Cannot sign 'Full name <email>' The Key is already signed be the 
specified signing key".

The third entry can't be signed because it's only the signature.

So I'am stuck again here. Can someone test this 'behavior' of PGP. I 
know this is a ML for GPG, but when I know the bug is in PGP I will go 
there. Promised! B-)
