Yeah, that shouldn't change anything. Doesn't even change Sup's output!

Except the message content, I guess. :)

It should; I was just suggesting it as an alternative approach to
figuring out what was causing the problem. Then Ben isn't in the loop
any more and you can spend all night happily debuggin this. :)

Was he using Sup the entire time?

It sounds like there might be some possibility that it's a GPG version
incompatibility, though I'd be a little surprised if that were really
the case. It might be helpful if you guys could do a control experiment
with Mutt, since I have a fair amount of faith in its GPG
implementation.
