Michael Lucas' gpg/pgp book recommends setting a relatively short expiration time, such as a year, for personal keys.
Would an expired key still work into the future? If, for example, I sign/encrypt a file today using a key that expires next year, would I be able to decrypt the file three years from now? I've been using a key that never expires to sign/encrypt mail and files on the assumption that keys with discrete lifetimes don't work after their expiration dates. thanks dn _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
