Hi Andre,

as onbe could see from my previous reply, it does not work
with gpg4win and I tested it also under my Debian subsystem,
which didn't worked either. :-(

But (sorry to say this here on the GnuPG ML) good news is
I just tested it with an older version of sequoia-pgp and guess
what it works for me. :-)
