I'm using x-hkp://pgpkeys.pca.dfn.de. There is outbound traffic through
gpgkeys_hkp while using x-hkp.

When I switch to plain 'pgpkeys.pca.dfn.de' there is no outbound traffic
at all. Noticed on my personal firewall. I haven't sniffed it yet though.

I do not use this feature. I always check for keys manually. However the
automatic feature doesn't work either.

Nope. Just the progress bar running for eternity.

Negative.

Only if I use the terminal with e.g. your key
'x-hkp://pgpkeys.pca.dfn.de --recv-key 0959D2E3' I get the key into the
ring. Which then btw works with enigma w/o any problems.
