Robert:
I tried to respond directly to you at <aleAT sixit.com> and my
email bounced with this message:
"Connected to 64.202.166.12 but sender was rejected.
Remote host said: 554 refused mailfrom because of SPF policy"
So now I have a new question: What is an "SPF policy"?

Thanks for the reply. As best I can tell the entire pgp package
still works just fine. I can encrypt a file and decrypt it
without trouble. So I don't think I have a corrupt key. Somehow
Kmail has gotten itself disconnected from the process somehow. I
have gone through the configure pages for Kmail and nothing pops
out at me as being wrong.
So I am still clueless. :(
