I have several stupid questions.  First, are you sure the password is
correct?
Try "gpg --clearsign" in a terminal.  You should see:

$ gpg --clearsign

You need a passphrase to unlock the secret key for
user: "Tim Guirgies <[email protected]>"
4096-bit RSA key, ID BE773416, created 2011-05-19

Enter passphrase: 

Then enter your message and enter ^D (press Ctrl-D).

Oh, and the point of keys is that they're meant to be shared. I
understand obfuscating email addresses, but keys are meant to be shared.
:P


Second stupid question: can you send your key from within mutt? The
default binding is Esc-k.  Try sending it to me, and see if that works
correctly.


Thirdly, how do you give your email password to mutt?  If you store it
in an encrypted file and pass it to mutt through gpg, does the password
verification work there?


I was going to talk about vim too, but probably best if I reply in the
other thread.
