# last 2001-07-31 (21:27 +0800), Federico Sevilla III <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> mentioned something about Netiquette issues on PGP-signing e-mail ? | I'm new to PGP (believe it or not) and just got my copy of GnuPG working really? i thought you did way back in the bbs days. | yesterday. I am wondering: given that not everybody has PGP or GnuPG, are | there netiquette issues with sending PGP-signed e-mail to such lists as | PLUG? Everyone can still read the e-mail anyway (albeit the "garbage") but | I was just wondering. :) yep, everyone can read it. but some may complain that if your post is not that important to be signed, don't do it at all. although it'd really help during flame wars so people would be sure that it was really you who made the posts. and yes, you must definitely use it when firing an employee through the list <g>. otherwise, it's probably better to leave your posts unsigned. people who are conscious of the bandwidth issues this can bring up would agree to this. of course, it would trigger my pgp4pine filter everytime i read one of your voluminous posts. but i really don't mind. *:) ... m a r c o a n t o n i o c a b a z a l wolfpac communications [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- If you wish to live wisely, ignore sayings -- including this one. _ Philippine Linux Users Group.
