This seems to be the case for me too.  I can send encrypted email
to myself and everything is fine.  However, when I try and send
it to this other person, it freezes.  This is the first time that I have
tried to use this person's key.  In fact he only generated it yesterday.
Now, he did it under windows, using one of the freeware Windows
clients (can't remember which one, but I can find out if it matters).
Could that be the problem?

I've made sure that the email address matches the key name.
Does anybody know what I'm missing?  It looks like I've screwed 
up the addition of the guy's key to GPG.  Is anybody a PGP/GPG
expert who can tell me what I've done wrong?

Thanks,
Mark
