I see it is configured to "always use first keyserver", I'll disable that and try again. [...] No, same error.
Maybe the SUSE keyserver is not connected to the rest
It's not. It is here:
I tried: hkps://keyserver.opensuse.org/ and it also failed to download the key «The key with ID 0x926E0C261BF45416 is not available on the keyserver.» Search on the http server by hand works, but that's not what Thunderbird does to import keys automatically. However, trying the terminal now works (it did not this morning): cer@Telcontar:~> gpg --recv-keys 0x926E0C261BF45416 gpg: requesting key 1BF45416 from hkp server pgp.mit.edu gpg: key 1BF45416: public key "Liam Proven <lproven@suse.de>" imported gpg: 3 marginal(s) needed, 1 complete(s) needed, classic trust model gpg: depth: 0 valid: 6 signed: 3 trust: 0-, 0q, 0n, 0m, 0f, 6u gpg: depth: 1 valid: 3 signed: 3 trust: 0-, 0q, 0n, 1m, 2f, 0u gpg: depth: 2 valid: 3 signed: 12 trust: 0-, 0q, 0n, 0m, 3f, 0u gpg: depth: 3 valid: 10 signed: 6 trust: 5-, 2q, 0n, 1m, 2f, 0u gpg: depth: 4 valid: 1 signed: 2 trust: 0-, 0q, 0n, 0m, 1f, 0u gpg: next trustdb check due at 2024-05-02 gpg: Total number processed: 1 gpg: imported: 1 (RSA: 1) cer@Telcontar:~> Once done, Thunderbird shows your mails PGP info
After I sent that reply, I wondered if I could find out myself. After some Googling, I got the same list of servers.
Respectively:
hkps://hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net,
Already there, AFAICS.
hkps://keys.mailvelope.com
Added now.
Adding to one server in the network should suffice, the key should propagate to other servers automatically. If the openSUSE server did not propagate it, but now you added it to this one, that's the reason that the command line worked for me a minute ago. Still I wonder why Thunderbird failed to download it. Maybe because the command line uses different servers :-? keyserver hkp://keys.gnupg.net keyserver hkp://pgp.mit.edu
hkps://pgp.mit.edu
Just times out.
So if "use first server only" wasn't on -- I've turned that setting off, too -- it should have worked.
