# %f      Expands to the name of a file containing a message.
# %s      Expands to the name of a file containing the signature part
#                    of a multipart/signed attachment when verifying it.
# %a      The value of $pgp_sign_as.
# %r      One or more key IDs.

# automatically sign all outgoing messages
set pgp_autosign=yes

# which key to use
set pgp_sign_as="0x1EAA5AC1"

#set pgp_getkeys_command="gpg --keyserver the.earth.li --recv-key %r"

# read in the public key ring
set pgp_list_pubring_command="gpg --no-verbose --batch --with-colons --list-keys %r"
