Hi Tomás,

I noticed that it is signed messages, like yours, that cause the
hiccup. I can't view them with the space bar (could not copy
message), but I can see them (including the signature text)
with the 'v' key.

Saving your message to a folder and running gpg -d on it
returns the message text and this:

	gpg: Signature made Sun 28 Feb 2016 10:43:03 PM HST using DSA key ID 7AD1DA46
	gpg: Can't check signature: public key not found

Could the exit status of gpg be causing mutt to give up?
I shouldn't need to verify your signature. 

btw I tried setting "set crypt_verify_sig=no" in .muttrc.

Thanks 

Joel
