Without yourself adding to the recipient: only remote party's key compromising will lead to message decryption. With yourself added: at least two keys can be compromised for message decryption. Higher risks. Question of trust. Some people are accurate in context of security and key management, others are absent-minded and because of them, as one of recipients, your messages under higher risk. -- Happy hacking _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
