That's correct.
OK, I think I know what is happening now. Thunderbird is probable trying to import a key from cpchan@sympatico.ca which is of course not my real posting address (I am reading this list as a Gmane Usenet group with Gnus). The reason why it verifies fine for Carlos is because he has my pgp key in his keyring from a long time ago.
Nop. Not this time. I was in Factory, using Thunderbird, and I had to import it because Factory is not what I normally use. Now I'm using 10.3, and unfortunately with Alpine I can not check detached signatures as the one you use.
I guess I need to generate a key for my Gmane address and use that address for posting.
No, even if you use a key for a different address that the one you use to post, it would verify. In any case, you know that you can add several addresses (IDs) to the same key. Just add it, then republish it. Having the incorrect ID only makes it more difficult for us to retrieve your key: when we search for an address, we wouldn't find the key for that address. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
