Hello again -- I'm afraid that even with File > Import keys from File in Enigmail, I get what must be errors as the window in Key Management remains empty. I've tried three imports and get :
Either I get this: The key(s) were successfully imported gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found. gpg: Total number processed: 0 OR I get this when I try importing exported PGP keys The key(s) were successfully imported gpg: [don't know]: invalid packet (ctb=2f) gpg: keydb_get_keyblock failed: Unknown system error gpg: [don't know]: invalid packet (ctb=2f) gpg: /home/rob/.gnupg/pubring.gpg: copy to `/home/rob/.gnupg/pubring.gpg.tmp' failed: Invalid packet gpg: error writing keyring `/home/rob/.gnupg/pubring.gpg': Invalid packet gpg: [don't know]: invalid packet (ctb=2f) gpg: keydb_search failed: Invalid packet gpg: key 86A04EF5: public key "[User ID not found]" imported gpg: [don't know]: invalid packet (ctb=2f) gpg: keydb_search failed: Invalid packet gpg: error reading `/home/rob/Desktop/J.
