I've upgraded mutt and gpg on my server to etch-backports, and
changed the /etc/Muttrc to the packaged version, and my last mail
checks out OK with a good signature on the desktop box, but fails on
the server. I think the next job is to strace mutt and find out what
it's doing when it checks the GPG signatures.
