Hi. Can anyone answer a question about MacPGP? My MaccPGP 2.2 seems to have developed a curious problem. I'm using it on a Mac Classic with system software 6.07. Both yesterday and today, I received a message from a friend, encrypted with my public key. When I downloaded this message from my Unix account to my Mac, it appeared on my screen as an MS Word icon. (MS Word is the word processing program I use.) I launched MacPGP, and selected "Open/Decrypt" from the file menu, and up came the box with the list of files to choose from. I chose the just-downloaded message, and then, in the PGP message area, PGP gave me the following message: "File is encrypted. Secret key is required to read it. This message can only be read by: keyID: xxx You do not have the secret key needed to decrypt this file." But the key ID number listed **is** in fact MY valid, working key ID !! Would anyone have any suggestions about why this is happening? Thanks, enormously, in advance. =============================================================================== Rusty Hoover | PGP 2.2 public key | Too much time, so little to do ... rusty@panix.com | by finger & e-mail | no, reverse that ... ===============================================================================
