Okay, I've removed wwwkeys.pgp.net for now as well and made 
pgp.mit.edu the default setting.

What kind of feedback to you want from me?



Regarding wwwkeys.pgp.net I think there's only the DNS record pointing 
so some system, but there seems no appropriate software running there 
(so it's maybe a stale DNS entry).



Bye,

Alexander.

I can confirm that keyserver.net seems to be dead; I've removed it 
from the options in HEAD and FW_3. wwwkeys.pgp.net seems to be up, at 
least in some respect, so I just moved it to the bottom of the list 
for now.

I found the problem.



www.keyserver.net does not behave well. When I remove it, everything 
works ok. When I add wwwkeys.pgp.net I get the timeout after 60 
seconds / a rejection. pgp.mit.edu works well.



I suggest to remove wwwkeys.pgp.net and www.keyserver.net from 
conf.xml. Maybe you can add keyserver.pgp.com instead (I did not test 
it with IMP).

Update:

I switched back from gnupg 2.0.3 to gnupg 1.4.7 and see the same behavior.



Generating a new private key with 1.4.7 works just fine, but 
displaying a pgp/gpg signed message with 2.03 or 1.4.7 does not work 
(causes the hang). I even went down to "1" for the timeout for the pgp 
keyserver.



Bye,

Alexander.

Hi,



since I switched from gnupg 1.x to 2.x (it's been a while), I'm not 
longer able to run with the activated pgp support. Everytime IMP tries 
to display a signed mail (key not in the keystore) it hangs. When I 
deactivate the pgp support in IMP, the same mail displays just fine.



Bye,

Alexander.
