Re: [Gaim-e-developer] Getting a unknown key from a keyserver

[<gai...@li...>]

It's been awhile since I did any of that research.  I
never new about the gpg.conf.  I think there was a way
to code gpgme to go grab keys from the keyserver. 
Though I don't see a way to do that now.  I'll make
another look later when I'm more awake.  
Thanks again to everyone for all of their help lately.
peace
