I am running GPG version 1 on Linux Mint KDE. When I try to extend the expiration date of my public key, I get
gpg> expire Need the secret key to do this. ...and despite the advice given on various Webpages, no box appears for me to input my secret key's passphrase. This question has come up on various Webpages, but no coherent answer was ever given to my knowledge. Enigmail indeed will extend expiration, but it fails to upload its results to a keyserver such as pgp.mit.edu So when I compare my results via the commandline with those attained through Enigmail, I wonder whether Enigmail will update the trustdb eventually; now I see that: gpg: next trustdb check due at 2018-09-01 i.e. the day when my public key will expire. -- Thomas Ruddy, Germany _______________________________________________ enigmail-users mailing list enigmail-users@enigmail.net To unsubscribe or make changes to your subscription click here: https://admin.hostpoint.ch/mailman/listinfo/enigmail-users_enigmail.net
