Unfortunately no.

1. I first start up Gnus and I get dialog box to put in my passphrase
   for my authinfo.gpg file.

2. I then get an *Error* buffer error from "gpg2"

   Error while decrypting with "gpg2":

          gpg: CAST5 encrypted data
          gpg: encrypted with 1 passphrase
          gpg: DBG: cleared passphrase cached with ID: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
          gpg: decryption failed: Bad session key

   Probably because it was encrypted with "gpg"

3. I then get hostname resolve error as posted previously..

Thanks for looking into this.
