First, ignore email totally for a minute. create a text tile called "test.txt" and save it on desktop with some text in it. Open a command prompt. (start | Run | cmd) and type the following (obviously replace "[your key Id]" with your real key id) gpg -aesr [your key Id] test.txt with luck you will be prompted for your passphrase and an encrypted version of test.txt will appear on desktop called test.txt.asc. If that works, lets get back to email. 1. do you have a secret key on your keyring for the email address the message you are trying to encrypt is from? OR 2. in your gpg.conf file (probably at Documents and Settings\ username\application date\gnupg) have you specified a default key to use? You can edit this file in a text editor or can do it via gpgshell or winpt. Put in a line saying default-key [your key Id] (obviously replace "[your key Id]" with your real key id) I would recommend a mailing list called PGPNET for practice and help with openPGP encryption.
