It appears to be working. I've played with it some more since my
earlier post, and it now decrypts and verifies signatures just fine.
(Or at least those of the person with whom I've been testing it.)

When I try to sign or encrypt, it gives the pass phrase dialog box,
but then I get an error message saying there is no default secret key.
I've repeatedly checked the preferences to make sure the paths are
correct, but still can't get over this hurdle.

This morning, however, I checked the properties on my key once again,
and this time looked more carefully at the subkeys. The DSA subkey can
sign and certify, while the ELG-E subkey, which has a different subkey
id, can encrypt. (The default id is the DSA key number.) Neither of
them have the authenticate box checked. Is this my problem? And if so,
how do I overcome it? Should I just generate a new keypair and use
different settings?

Rick
