Yours is being picked up, its in yellow, which as I understand it is the norm since I don't have a copy of your key, nor does the list server. Its the same as if you sent me direct mail. Mine however, is red, which to me means there is something wrong with my key or the listserver just doesn't like it. If my sig shows up as 'yellow' when a msg is sent to you direct, it should be the same here I would think. > I was under the impression that if you uploaded to one keyserver all the > others picked it up shortly afterwards.
