Presumably you have an email address of the person for some reason,
whether or not you want to send secrets to that address depends on
where you got it. What you want to know is: how do you send those
secrets securely? If the keyserver has certified the key with a
challenge response protocol you've got your answer.

Ideally you'd have an email address and a fingerprint, but often you
don't.
