Reading PGP messages with Mutt

[Steve Holmes]

What's even more strange is your message appears to me in mutt as it
does below; no gpg output or 's' in the status line.  On the other
hand, Alex Snow and Gregory's messages have a pgp header warning about
being unable to open the key.  Thanks for the tip on pgp.conf; haven't
dug in there yet.  Any how, your message appears different from the
others.  Not sure why.

Thanks again for the additional info.
