There’s a thread on Apple’s forums for how to fix the “unrecognized selector” bug, with a download to a new .mailbundle that fixes the problem.

Could you please give some hints on how to create a key. The Bundle works, but I have no idea how to use it…

Looks like this has to do with the 10.6.3 OS X update of late. See here on the gpgmail-users mailing list: http://bit.ly/98pfQR.
I’ve confirmed that the same things happens to me.
The “unrecognized selector” exception looks like something Cocoa-related, and may be simply an interface bug. Guess we’ll have to see what happens in the future.
One workaround is to use OpenPGP/MIME, but this is only really helpful if you have the OpenPGP app. Otherwise, you have to save the *.asc file attachment and manually decrypt it with GPG.
Hope this helps!

I am able to get it to encrypt files but it won’t decrypt mail messages. I get this:

Internal error: -[MimePart getNumberOfAttachments:isSigned:isEncrypted:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x1179ab890

Do you have any ideas on what may be causing this error?
