And now I want to post my solution for the benefit of anyone else who
runs across it:
I erased my hard drive a month or so ago; it's something I do
periodically to make Windows loose some weight (usually 50% if it's a
six-months old installation. I try out a lot of software).
After I did this, of course, I re-installed my apps (Including
TheBat!) and filled in the mail base from another copy.
When I set up the bat I did point it, as always, to my proper keyrings
and randseed file.
Alas, I forgot to check the box that indicates that I'm using version
6. SO, it was trying to use the version 6 keyrings according to the
"internal" method. Neither the public nor the private keyring
contained anything it could recognize---and all signatures came up as
invalid.
Moral of the story: check all your settings carefully when you
discover a "bug!"
