Thanks to Alvar and Daniel for a reply.
It works with the Spanish (wwwkeys.es.pgp.net) keyserver without
problems. The German (wwwkeys.de.pgp.net) can't even be pinged (I live
in Germany, that's why I try it all the time). The Danish
(wwwkeys.dk.pgp.net) can be pinged, but gives me the reply I got
yesterday all the time from all the keyservers I tried. The '--verbose'
option doesn't give me further output. The '--debug-all' gave me the
following output:
~$ gpg -v --debug-all --keyserver wwwkeys.dk.pgp.net --recv-key 0xBAC8E4D5

Do I have a local problem? Are the servers out of sync?
