"GVN" (use ROT-13 to decrypt) is NOT required; when are the juvenille

Without your public key, I can't tell. Couldn't get the key from key
servers, and you didn't provide it.

DB057CBA is my public key

DB057CBA is my public key

That is the key id, not the public key. If you try to verify the
signature on this key, you'll find my key id is 98B013E0. Since
you don't have my public key on your key ring, pgp will ask you
if you want to import it from one of the public key servers. If
you say yes, then pgp will use the key id, to get my public key
from one of the key servers, and then it will be able to verify
the signature of my message.

You should export your public key to one of the public key servers.

I'm using gpg (on linux), not pgp, so I can't give you the specifics,
of how to do this with the current version of pgp.

Would it help people if I just posted my key ID DB057CBA?

It would be better to export the key to a public key server, but
you can post it. You have to export the public key (make sure you
don't include the private key) to a file, as ascii armoured text.

The open the file in a text editor, such as notepad. Copy & paste
the key into Thunderbird.

I've just exported it to ldap://certserver.pgp.com. Should that work?

Yes, now I can read (it's gpg):
UNTRUSTED Good signature from Steve Horn <***@fusemail.com>
Key ID: 0xDB057CBA / Signed on: 12.02.2008 17:10
Key fingerprint: 8A75 B959 7C01 462F 6304 D60B 3C6D 35E1 DB05 7CBA

Yes. I've now imported your key from the keyserver, and stored it in
my keyring. Checking the sig on the article I'm responding to, I also
get
Good signature from:
Steve Horn <***@fusemail.munged>
Key ID: 0xDB057CBA
The signature is valid, but the key is untrusted

Note that the untrusted part, is simply because I have not marked
the key, as being trusted.

You can find a lot of usefull info at

Yes, Steve, but only if you have uploaded your key to a server.

I used KGPG in Linux to look up your key with the key ID and import it.
Only then was I able to verify your sig (which was good, BTW). That
means you must have uploaded your key sometime after your first post
when I couldn't find the key on several servers I tried.

Since you have now uploaded your key, there is no need to post your key
ID. Just signing your post is good enough.
