I have gpg set up this way. Would it download the key of said 'Martin Macok'
if I opened a signed mail from him? It does not for me.
.gnupg options contains (comments deleted)
force-v3-sigs
escape-from-lines
lock-once
keyserver wwwkeys.pgp.net
honor-http-proxy

How would mutt, gpg or I know what keyid he had? the signature is just
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----
Version: GnuPG v1.0.2 (GNU/Linux)
