For proper operation of PGP (or any other application that uses PGP-type keys), you want to leave your keyring as is, outside of Mozilla. In any case, Mozilla does not have the capability to use PGP keys. Thus, you need to continue using PGP to maintain your keyring. If you want to encrypt, decrypt, sign, or verify what you see in a Mozilla window (e.g., verify the signature on an E-mail message), select the window and then use the PGP capabilities. On a PC running Windows, that involves selecting the PGP icon in the Tray and then selecting Current Window in the menu (e.g., Current Window > Decrypt and Verify, which will merely verify if the window is already > plain-text). Since I use PGP to sign messages and encrypt, I use Mozilla's certificates only to verify secure Web pages (e.g., when logging-on to my bank's Web site). -- David E.
