I'm not sure why this is a workaround : its what gpg-agent is for. Its handy because it can provide the keys for other activities outside of emacs too. You might also consider using keychain. In my .bash_env I have keychain --quiet source $HOME/.keychain/$HOSTNAME-sh-gpg > /dev/null 2>&1 ans my gpg-conf is simple use-agent cheers r. _______________________________________________ info-gnus-english mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english
