Are there any plans to extend support to GnuPG 2.1 + PGP/MIME ?
The problem is that more and more mail solutions reject GnuPG V 1,
for example newer versions of Enigmail.

Greetings

I pushed GnuPG 2.1's PGP/MIME support to github master.
Please give a try.

Thanks a lot!
What is the recommended way to configure emacs+mew to use this version of gpg?
(via the variable mew-pgp-ver ? ; if so, how?)

Sorry. I forgot to say this. You should put the following into your
.emacs.

(setq mew-prog-pgp "gpg2")

I guess you have already the following. If not, you should add it, too.

(setq mew-prog-passwd "gpg2")
