indeed you can; available optione on [gpg2]: --export-secret-keys [ names ], --export-secret-subkeys [ names ]
And you can export secret keys from key management in Enigmail easily to import to another instance. Indeed you should export the stuff and have a real backup (meaning not on a computer, multiple encrypted copies help) of your keys anyway; best the revokation certificate as well in case. Actually subkeys and/or combination with a hardware token [PGP SmartCard] are an alternative for especially mobile devices (more vulnerable, easily lost, …). see also "SmartCard" on the Enigmail Menu On 11.01.2017 06:38, p...@artisticslate.com wrote: > I use Thunderbird with Enigmail for several email accounts on a Linux > desktop and now I wish to use the same setup on my Linux laptop. > Can I use/share/import the same private keys somehow?
