What version of GPG are you using?

If I remember correctly QSAAM is very old and still relies on the use of
an older GPG version, e.g. the version that still uses files pubring.gpg
and secring.gpg

You would need to install older GPG ver 1.X.X, generate your nym key
with that version and then try again.

Based on my experience, the Ghio nymservers work with even the most recent
releases of GnuPG, i.e. 2.4.1.

They also work with the oldest supported release, 1.4.23.

If there is a problem, where replies from the nymservers are not being
received, it almost invariably due to problems with the reply-block being
used. (There have been, in the past, times where one or both nymservers are
acting-up, but these are rare.)

For instance, I (manually) setup this nym and got replies from the nymserver
within a few minutes. (I'm using GnuPG 2.4.1).

That's been my experience too. I haven't claimed otherwise.

I only claimed that the software QSAAM, which the OP says he is using,
is incompatable with GnuPG v2.

Agreed. And that could be another issue the OP is running into.
