Primary reason to publish a key is to make it available for fetching. It isn't a permission for anyone to annoy a person anyhow.
Keservers have every characteristic of a public directory. What possible reason there could be for placing one's e-mail in the public key if not to make it possible for anyone to send an e-mail to the owner. To make a piece of information publicly available on the net and then depend on "netiquette" for that piece of information not be used in a manner the owner finds objectionable strikes me as a rather outdated notion. _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
