Indeed, this does a Web Key Directory lookup if the key does not exists. This is actually the same as using "-r [email protected]" which does the same as locate-key or view it vice versa. In case you already have an old key you may want to use gpg --locate-external-key [email protected] which does the lookup even if the key already exists in your local keyring. Egon is indeed a cool name but WKD is used at more sites than Proton; for example kernel.org. I think we have some list at wiki.gnupg.org. BTW, it is a pitty that the Web Key Directory support was removed from Thunderbird. Many years ago we added it to Enigmail but afaik it has not been implement in the current Thunderbird PGP implementation.
