Thank you. I was surprised to see all the packets listed with "gpg --list-packets" but trusted its output. It seems that my "gpg --list-packets" command (see above) decrypts the message using the cached secret key and then shows all the packets. As you said "pgpdump" don't show any signature information. There is just a public key encrypted session key packet and a symmetrically encrypted message packet. -- /// Teemu Likonen - .-.. http://www.iki.fi/tlikonen/ // OpenPGP: 4E1055DC84E9DFF613D78557719D69D324539450
