Yes, I have on my todo to allow some kind of “Send Anyways” for this issue.

I'm not a general expert on OpenPGP settings (and I tend to forget how some details work), but I think this is the setting you need in your configuration file (`~/.gnupg/gpg.conf`):

	personal-digest-preferences SHA512 SHA384 SHA256 SHA224

But I'm sure someone else on the list will correct me if this is not the correct solution :)
