If you were using GnuPG, and if you had my public key you would know, for sure, that I wrote this and not the Rich Man from Nigeria with all the money. ;-) It works the same way as the gpg-key that checks your downloads to make sure that they are 'real', and who signed the RPMs, and not spoofs. If you had a key and I had your public key, if we, for example, chose to we could send emails to each other that are encrypted and could only be read by you and me. Not to the list(s), of course. Private emails. You could do that with others, if they had keys and you chose to do so. You are aware that all of the servers that forward your email, listed in the headers, keep copies that can be read by anyone? At least they used to do that. - -- David -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFFHaIRrItTyWRhT1YRAho2AJ9KpgP4hsXYYMmK7rugarv4elFYigCgga8m 9HaKlJZRajdGmptwnep3hQM= =W3Z7 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
