I don't have an answer to your question but I'm really curious about this. What does your setup look like and how did you create your keypair? Did you use any special options in the creation process? Typically one would want to be prompted for a passphrase both for decryption and signing. Mutt can be set to remember the gpg passphrase for a certain time. Is it possible that you might have decrypted some email and typed the passphrase and then while mutt remembered the passphrase signed and sent another email? Interesting situation nevertheless. -- Jonas Hedman XMPP: [email protected] PGP Key: 0x5c3989e0616bb08c Fingerprint: 8F72 C5BE AAFA B4BA 8F46 9185 5C39 89E0 616B B08C
