Hi

Following is the sum up of the OpenPGP output, after Enigmail attempted 
to process your e-mail"

"OpenPGP Security Info

Error - secret key needed to decrypt message

gpg command line and output:
/usr/local/bin/gpg2 --charset utf8  --batch --no-tty --status-fd 2 
--keyserver-options auto-key-retrieve --keyserver keyserver.linux.it -d 
--use-agent
gpg: encrypted with ELG key, ID 7F9BBBD5
gpg: decryption failed: No secret key"



You aparently encrypted the message to your own key. If so, only you can 
decrypt the quoted message, if you own secret key 7F9BBBD5.


But more relevantly, one does not post encrypted messages to a list.

Maybe you intended to sign your message?

Welcome.

Charly
