> - i can't revoke it --> no passphrase :-( > - i still need the email adresses with the useless keys > - i definitely can't find the passphrase OK, Stupid Response Question First: Did You have the common sense to generate a Revocation Certificate immediately after creating the Key? (i.e. While You could remember the passphrase) If You did; then simply Import the this Revoke Cert and ship the Dead Key to the Servers. If not; and I suspect this is the case, then You have a Major Problem. You may be screwed; However You are not the first individual to confront this problem and, sadly, won't be the last. If You are unable to Revoke the former Key then by all means; Generate a New Key (and create a standby Revoke cert) and Publish this Key *AND* notify every critical correspondent of the new Key! Still, those folks who Search for your Key via Email Address may send You encrypted Email using the Former/Compromised Key. (Shake Head sadly and mutter, "Ah Shit") I suggest You Move On (sadder but wiser) and accept that that You have made a common misstep on the path to Secure Communication.
