Good Day, This very novice would appreciate some help.
My situation: I have several Raspberry Pi 4 computers running the Raspberry Operating System (Raspbian GNU/Linux [buster], Version ID=10) at my home. I need each of them to send me an email notification when certain functions are performed. I have gpg version 2.2.12-1+rpi1+deb10u1 installed. To this end, I have configured the mail system called msmtp on each Raspberry Pi 4 computer. I can send email to my myself via my Gmail and david.donnelly.com (IONOS.COM) accounts manually and interactively using msmtp on each of the Raspberry Pi 4 computers. Problem: However, following good internet security policies, I tried to encrypt my email account passwords using GPG (Gnu PG: https://gnupg.org/). These encrypted passwords are to be stored in a file on each Raspberry Pi4 computer. Now, first off, this encryption process worked fine for my Gmail Account. I was able to run the following command: gpg --encrypt -o .msmtp-gmail.gpg -r donnell...@gmail.com <mailto:donnell...@gmail.com> - The password provided was encrypted with no problems and the associated file was created. However, when I try to run the same command using my david.donnelly.com (IONOS.COM) email account: gpg --encrypt -o .msmtp-ionos.gpg -r david.donne...@daviddonnelly.com <mailto:david.donne...@daviddonnelly.com> - or gpg --encrypt -o .msmtp-ionos.gpg -r 2...@daviddonnelly.com <mailto:2...@daviddonnelly.com> - I get the following three errors: gpg: error retrieving 'david.donne...@daviddonnelly.com' via WKD: Network error gpg: david.donne...@daviddonnelly.com <mailto:david.donne...@daviddonnelly.com> : skipped: Network error gpg: [stdin]: encryption failed: Network error If I substitute and use my 2...@daviddonnelly.com <mailto:2...@daviddonnelly.com> email address, I get the same three errors: gpg: error retrieving '2...@daviddonnelly.com' via WKD: Network error gpg: 2...@daviddonnelly.com <mailto:2...@daviddonnelly.com> : skipped: Network error gpg: [stdin]: encryption failed: Network error I then reran the encryption command using my Gmail address: gpg --encrypt -o .msmtp-gmail.gpg -r donnell...@gmail.com <mailto:donnell...@gmail.com> - and encryption and file creation was successful. At face value, I have internet access, my network is working, so I have concluded something is causing a problem in the gpg program with resolving/determining/? how to translate my IONOS.COM custom e-mail address: david.donne...@daviddonnelly.com <mailto:david.donne...@daviddonnelly.com> or 2...@daviddonnelly.com <mailto:2...@daviddonnelly.com> vice the GPG program fully understanding how to handle the "gmail.com" address. Your help in this matter is greatly appreciated, Dave
