No. This is what happened: In my gpg.conf "use-agent" was enabled, but there was no agent. So, gpg issues a warning that there is no Agent, decrypts and verifies everything just fine, and exits with status 2. Then, pgg assumes a failure (although the *pgg-gpg-debug* buffer contains success messages). I've got a different problem now. Sometimes I can't decrypt mail because pgg claims that my passphrase is incorrect. The *pgg-gpg-debug* buffer also has corresponding error messages. I'm pretty sure that I type in my passphrase correctly, though. The prompt appears over and over again, and I'm having difficulties escaping it. C-g doesn't help. (I'm typing an Umlaut then, which leads to "error in process filter: Attempt to change byte length of a string" and allows me to escape. Once, I even crashed Emacs with repeated Umlauts and C-g's... Is there a better escape sequence?) So for this only occurs with large (> 5.7 MB) encrypted attachments. Manual decryption with gpg works just fine. Any ideas? Jens
