no idea how this works
why your master not Ed25519?
Code: [Select]
gpg --keyserver https://185.125.188.26 --search-keys [email protected]Choosing 606520ACB886B428 does the same

After adding also the key 3 I imported the file generated with this in thunderbird and now it shows encryption possible.
Edit: When I try to send the email some error happens.
"Sending of the message failed".
Code: [Select]
gpg --export -a "<[email protected]>" > nous.key
