Hi mutters, this is slightly off topic here. I just set up mutt to work with gpg today, and was rather astonished that key servers expose email addresses quite happily. Say, simply run 'gpg --search-keys foo' prints out 325 email addresses together with the found keys. I guess spammers could easily use the key servers to find email addresses, since the process could be easily automated with something like expect. And worse, email addresses associated with keys are most possible being actively used by key owners. Is it possible to inform the key server not to show my email address when people are searching it? Or, am I just overly paranoid on this ;) -Isaac -- Isaac Claymore /"\ ASCII Ribbon Campaign Exavio Inc. \ / Respect for open standards Beijing, China X No HTML/RTF in email http://www.exavio.com.cn / \ No M$ Word docs in email
