Just tagged and released v0.2.  It contains this change.  To define the
header you want to check for recipients, in .nymservrc:-
[misc]
recipient_source = X-Original-To

If you do a:
gpg --homedir=/home/breaka/nymserv/keyring --list-keys <your_fingerprint>
Does it find and display the key? It should also work if you use <keyid>
instead of fingerprint but I prefer the longer version to avoid any
potential ambiguity.

If you download the new version, I've added some debug-level log
messages that might help you identify the issue.  You can get it from
here:
https://github.com/downloads/crooks/nymserv/nymserv-0.2.tar.gz
Or via the git repository if that's how you're currently obtaining the
code.  You can install it without any impact to your current config.

Correct.

Also correct.

Thanks Ken.
