thanks a lot! are these reasonable defaults whats explained in the first paragraph or is there more to it? in particular i'm interested in the cert-expire option- i tried to use --quick-sign-key with --default-cert-expire 1y, but then i didn't find a way to review the expiry date of the signature (is there a switch to see the expiry date of signatures?) thanks and cheers, muri _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
