Please forgive me for piling several questions into a single post. If anyone wants to just answer a subset, I'll still be very happy to read your advice.
I believe that the key I'm signing this message with is 2048 bits and will expire next year. If I've got either of those details wrong, please correct my error(s). I would like to generate a new key (which never expires) and begin to transition to using it. Mostly I sign messages, but occasionally I receive encrypted messages from friends. I hope that in the future I will use gnupg more. What size key do you recommend I create in order to be future proof (for the rest of my life -- I'm in my early 50s)? I believe that the master key for the subkey I'm currently using will also expire next year. How would I go about confirming/refuting that assumption? I currently use gnupg with two different email accounts (this one and a gmail address) and I use different mail clients for each: thunderbird with enigmail here and claws-mail (and whatever debian gnupg plugin is appropriate for claws) with gmail. How can I set things up so that I can switch back and forth between two keys (for signing) until this one expires in 2018? I'm on debian 9 stretch on two different computers with this setup. thanks so very much in advance for any answers (or pointers to appropriate documentation), ~c
