You know guys, perhaps this would be a good subject for a Wednesday night! I
know about GPG (as to what it is) but have no idea how to use it for email.
Does anyone know enough about this subject (GPG) that they could do a talk on
it?

Subject: [UM-LINUX] [OT] Keyserves and Spam
For a while I've been meaning to start using GPG again. It was
something I messed with years ago but let by the wayside. Now I'd like
to get back to using it to, at a minimum, sign emails. It seems like
this is much more useful if you put your public key up on a keyserver,
but it looks to me like that puts your email address out there where it
can easily be picked up by spammers. I'm curious if anyone has any
experience about whether putting your key on a keyserver results in a
lot of spam or if there's some way to put your key up while avoiding spam.
Thanks,
Nick
