I have seen webmail that supports OpenPGP; however, it is necessary
to upload the private key with the particular webmail that I noticed.
Since storing a private key with someone else's system is a security
breach, I decided not to use webmail in that way.
If a person is determined to use webmail, a separate key pair just
for use on a webmail might be prudent. Keeping physical possession of a
private key seems to be a better precaution.
