That message is from PGP 2.x, not from Mutt. > I have pgp-us 2.6.3a-6 installed, also gpg-idea 2.1.1, gpg-rsa 2.1.1 > and gpg-rsaref 1.1-2 on my system and .muttrc has > > set pgp_v2=/usr/bin/pgp > set pgp_gpg=/usr/bin/gpg > > Is there something else needed? You don't say it, but I guess you have GnuPG installed, don't you? The gpg-<algo> extension modules are for making GnuPG working with old PGP 2.x (RSA) keys. Also, either have gpg-rsa module (if outside of the US) or gpg-rsaref module (if in the US), but not both (preferably outside the US, ie. gpg-rsa). You can spare yourself having both PGP and GnuPG installed in various ways. Please, have a look at GnuPG (www.gnupg.org) documentation project (www.gnupg.org/gph) and look for the pgp2x.html document (about GnuPG interoperability with PGP 2.x) and a link to pgp2gnupg.html (aka PGP 5 ... or so, a bit outdated but will give you an idea for what to do. It explains how to export your private keys from PGP and import them into GnuPG, and how to use them). If you decide to import your RSA key (pgp 2.x) into GnuPG, please bear in mind that pgp 2.x does not generate an autosignature, you'll have to work around that from the referred docs. Also, for having it working with Mutt, have a look at Mutt-GnuPG-PGP howto (again slightly outdated).
