I have seen pgg ask me if I want to download public > keys, could it also ask for the right key-id's password? i got a question on this one: why does pgg sometimes ask if it should get a public key and sometimes it lets a message silently fail for not having that key? shouldn't it ask always? i have the *-option variables set to 'known, and the method set to "pgpmime", because i want to be able to encrypt/sign/decrypt multiparts. is this thinking correct? basically, each part could be encoded and encrypted with a "pgp" method as well, i guess. clemens
