    Yes I installed the gnupg package. OK, thanks for the heads-up regarding
    'options.skel'. It's been copied over to the appropriate directory.

    I also got the gpg.rc file, and referenced it to my muttrc. I'm still
    getting the errors about not finding the key, however, when I attempt to
    sign.

    In my options file, I stated my default key in the following format:

    default-key F8A48DF1

    Is this the proper syntax?

    Is there a good SxS for this anywhere. Any I'm found, don't really go
    through this step x step. I followed one, and it didn't even mention an
    "options" file.

    I guess failing there being a SxS, I'll have to write one -- once I get
    this working that is...

    OK, Still not for me though. :) I'm learning though. Thanks for the
    help.
