What kind of key can't handle it in gnupg?

I sent messages to all key types, including v3 keys, using the 
forced MDC, 
(my preferred cipher is 3DES, not that I have anything against any 
others, but have been used to using it and see no particular reason 
to change), 
and gnupg still decrypts without any problems or error messages, 
and confirms the MDC.
