    Hi,
    I (using Thunderbird/Enigmail) sent my public key to Bob (who uses apple,GPGchain). It worked.

    When Bob sent his public key from (apple,GPGchain) to me (Thunderbird/Enigmail), the following message appeared:
    In German:
    Leider konnte kein passender Schlüssel zu den angegebenen Suchkriterien gefunden werden.
    Beachten Sie, dass Schlüssel-IDs mit „0x“ beginnen müssen (z.B. 0xABCDEF12).
    In English:
    A fitting key could not be found.
    Be aware, that key-ids have to begin with "0x", (f.e. 0xABCDEF12).

    If we try to import from a file, the message appears:
    In German:
    gpg: 'C:\\Users\\Admin\\Downloads\\Matthias Scholz (7E272579) û O¿ffentlich.asc' kann nicht geöffnet werden: No er
    gpg: Anzahl insgesamt bearbeiteter Schlüssel:

    In English:
    gpg: 'C:\\Users\\Admin\\Downloads\\Matthias Scholz (7E272579) Can't open: No er
    gpg: Total numbor of processed keys

    The error-message doesn't realy make sense: "No er "?

    What to do? Where is the mistake?
    Thanks for the help.
    Andi
