You must have missed this in the OP's post. It's omitted in your reply
quote as well: "Users will send emails to a program running..."

I take this to mean _remote_ network users. msmtp-mta is an smtp _CLIENT_
only. It will not fit the OP's need. The OP's comment implies an smtp
listener is needed.

From: http://msmtp.sourceforge.net/doc/msmtp.html#Configuration-files

"1 Introduction

msmtp is an SMTP client.

In its default mode of operation, it reads a mail from standard input and
sends it to a predefined SMTP server that takes care of proper delivery.
Command line options and exit codes are compatible to sendmail."

It seems clear that the OP is going to need an smtp mta with pipe or local
delivery capability. Which one will depend on the answers to the questions
in my previous post.

Hello,

I overlooked that.
My apologies.

Regards.

Absolutely right. My apologies to the OP.

It happenned to me too with some user's key, so I changed my default
keyserver in ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf to

keyserver x-hkp://pool.sks-keyservers.net

Now I get better timings:

$ time -p(gpg --recv-keys 448B31EB)
gpg: solicitando clave 448B31EB de hkp servidor
pool.sks-keyservers.net
gpg: clave 448B31EB: "David Sastre Medina (David)
<d.sastre.medina(a)gmail.com>" sin cambios
gpg: Cantidad total procesada: 1
gpg: sin cambios: 1
real 0.76
user 0.01
sys 0.00

$ time -p(gpg --recv-keys DEA22DE9)
gpg: solicitando clave DEA22DE9 de hkp servidor
pool.sks-keyservers.net
gpg: clave DEA22DE9: "Andrei Popescu <andreimpopescu(a)gmail.com>" sin
cambios
gpg: Cantidad total procesada: 1
gpg: sin cambios: 1

And another crucial question: do you need a full MTA, or will you
just be relaying mail to a real MTA (smarthost)?

Hm, I had thought that at least some of the small, relaying MTAs
accepted connections on port 25. On closer perusal, it looks like they
don't.

One option would be to build your own version of one of the big ones,
with all unnecessary functionality excluded. I don't know what the
resulting binary size would be.
