I'm sure you do know that the public key needs to be made available for others to be able to send you encrypted messages. Of course the *primary* private key should be protected properly. A Debian recommendation (that I can't find) was suggesting to generate and keep it on a Tails USB stick and use it only for certifying other keys. Day to day work (messages, signing packages, etc.) should be done with sub-keys instead. Kind regards, Andrei -- http://wiki.debian.org/FAQsFromDebianUser
