I forgot to refer the different behaviour between the 2 Gnus versions:
- Gnus shipped with Emacs:
I select the email (summary buffer) and I get the question "Decrypt
(PGP) part? (y or n)". When I answer 'y', I'm asked for the
passphrase and get the email decrypted
- Ma Gnus:
I get the same question ("Decrypt (PGP) part? (y or n)") and when I
reply 'y', I get another question: "Decrypt pgp encrypted part? (y
or n)". Only after answering 'y' to this question I'm asked for the
passphrase.
