Hopefully another 16.5 years? :) The RSA support in pgp (and presumably gpg as well) goes as high as 2047 bits -- which is a bit more difficult than 512 bits. I suppose it depends on one's needs. :) -- Seth Arnold | http://www.willamette.edu/~sarnold/ Hate spam? See http://maps.vix.com/rbl/ for help
