My domain registrar sends out robot mails PGP signed. But I'm not sure that any of the sigs on the key (0x1144E223) are anything but clueless sigs by people who don't understand the testimony implied by a PGP key signature. Certainly no sigs from keys which are clearly staff keys for the registrar. Unfortunately, I can't use PGP-signed email to communicate with them because I'm not a reseller. :^( And it looks like they still expect inline signatures instead of MIME-based PGP sigs. *shrug* On the bright side again, they were able to set up IPv6-only NS glue for one of my NS records, so I have an IPv6-only delegation path for my domains. On the dark side, the online tools couldn't quite handle it, but on the bright side they were willing to set it up manually, despite my being a lowly registrant and not a reseller. So there is some hope in the domain registration world.
