Encryption Problem
Reported by matthias | September 27th, 2018 @ 10:29 AM
Hello,
I'm trying to send an encrypted message and get the following
error:
KEY_CONSIDERED xxxxxx 0
KEY_CONSIDERED xxxxxx 3
INV_RECP 0 recipient@domain.tls
FAILURE encrypt 53
The key is valid, but I can't encrypt, what to do?
Thanks
Matthias

Sorry about the very late response!
Error codes from GNUPG are not always informative. According to a header file then 53 means
GPG_ERR_UNUSABLE_PUBKEY
.Does this only happen for a specific recipient or all recipients?
If you want I can provide instructions to get a command line for the Terminal with which you can more easily experiment -- if you are a Terminal user.

I had as similar issue where the recipient used a different domain for GPG mails. I only found out after examining the output of the key list
gpg -k
and copied the desired email address from there.

Thanks for the hint. Perhaps it'll be useful for people googling the same issue.
