 --send-keys [names]
           Same as --export but sends the keys  to  a  key­
           server.  Option --keyserver must be used to give
           the name of this keyserver. Don't send your com­
           plete keyring to a keyserver - select only those
           keys which are new or changed by you.


I reccommend key server wwwkeys.de.pgp.net.

  gpg --verify filename
or

I believe KMail has a way to make this easy. One way I use sometimes is
drag my mouse over the entire message to get it on the X clipboard, then
in a terminal window I type "gpg [Enter] [Shift-Insert] [Ctrl-D]".

I do not have to do that often. I have my mail client (mutt) setup to
automatically run gpg on signed and/or encrypted messages. When I view a
signed message, mutt shows me the results of the signature check along
with the message itself.
