(BTW, part of the problem is that when I get the X popup, Emacs is in an unresponsive state. And I need Emacs to get the password. So I need to run a second Emacs instance, or get the password before calling Gnus.) I tried pinentry.el from Gnu Elpa. What do I need to add exactly to "~/.gnupg/gpg-agent.conf"? Just "allow-emacs-pinentry" as the package's doc tells doesn't work. I could figure it out myself I guess, but I decided to CC the author and hope we can improve the package's doc instead. Thanks, Michael.
