Hi all, I have tried:
A. Deleting ~/.gnupg and starting over
B. Killing gpg-agent and restarting
C. Having an essentially blank .muttrc except for imap/smtps and ~/.gpg.rc
D. Adding in set crypt_use_gpgme=no
E. Using the 16-character KeyID
F. Using the 16-character KeyID prefixed with 0x
G. Using the 8-character keyID
H. Using the 8-character KeyID prefixed with 0x
I. Using the full keyID
J. Using the full keyID prefixed with 0x
K. I have tried this on FreeBSD 12.0
L. I have tried this on Linux (Mint/Ubuntu)

As I said earlier, this seems to be affecting others on the internet.
Is it safe to say this is a bug in mutt?
