What Gnus and gpg.el did not do was to take the content of either part of the multipart message and offer to decrypt it and display the decrypted contents.

I've got an open case with AOL because first and second level helpdesk folks weren't able to tell me how to do that.

While the "right" solution is to fix AOL, the more probable solution seems to be to fix Gnus or gpg.el -- does anyone know what's wrong or how to fix it? I'll help debug the problem if people can give me generic pointers on just what to do, as I'm unfamiliar with this particular subsystem.
