Hi John, Thanks for the reply, but I'm fairly certian that's a different key pair than the one I generated with GnuPG for signing mail and encrypting documents. Anyway, the key I was looking for /must/ be stored somewhere under ~/.gnupg/ because I was able to 'export' it (again?) to a .asc file and use that with the other program. regards, Carl -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
