     Did you install the gnupg package? There must be a options.skel in
     the distribution like in /usr/share/gnupg or
     /usr/locale/share/gnupg. Copy that file to your $HOME/.gnupg as
     $HOME/.gnupg/options and fix your keyserver, defaultkey etc in that
     file. Also you need the gpg.rc.gz out of the mutt doc-distro
     unziped and copied to your $HOME/.mutt/muttrc.gpg. In .mutt/muttrc
     you have to notice mutt by source ~/.mutt/muttrc.gpg by that file.

     Thats my way and it works perfect ;-)

     HTH
