I seem to be unable to send my public GPG key.  Here's what
happens when I try:

1)  Let's say I've composed an e-mail and am ready to send
it, along with my key.  From the compose menu, I press <Esc>k;

2)  I'm prompted at the bottom of the screen: "Please enter the key ID:"
I enter the ID of my GPG public key and press <RETURN>.

3)  This puts me in the PGP menu where I see my public and private key IDs
listed thus:

   1 +  1024/0xFC5C7370 DSA  -s Russell Hoover <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
   2 +  XXXX/XxXXXXXXXX XXX  e- Russell Hoover <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

4)  I press <RETURN> and get this message at the bottom of my screen:

Invoking pgp...File `gpg-output' exists. Overwrite (y/N)?

This is where the trouble starts, because I am now stuck here.  I can't
get out by pressing <RETURN> or y or Y or n or N or anything else.  I'm
hung.

5)  So I Control-c out, and am put back into the compose menu, where
I see my public key listed in the Attachments list:

- A     2 PGP Key 0xFC5C7370.                  [applica/pgp-keys, 7bit, 0K]

But when I 'v'iew the key attachment, I get this message:

[-- Error: could not find beginning of PGP message! --]

And if I send this mail, the recipient sees this:

------------------------------------------------------------------
[-- Attachment #1 --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Encoding: 7bit, Size: 0.1K --]

My text message here.

                                 // [EMAIL PROTECTED] //

[-- Attachment #2: PGP Key 0xFC5C7370. --]
[-- Type: application/pgp-keys, Encoding: 7bit, Size: 0K --]

[-- Error: could not find beginning of PGP message! --]
-------------------------------------------------------------------

What am I doing wrong?
