The answer is simple: You cannot "add a secondary UID" to a certificate. 
You can "add a UID" only.

The new one does not become a "primary UID" in a technical sense. It is 
just shown first because it has the newest self signature.

You have to explicitly mark one as primary:

gpg --edit-key 0x12345678
gpg> uid 2
gpg> primary
gpg> save

How to add secondary uid?

I've googled, and I've searched, and I've tried and I've screwed up
and deleted without sending to keyserver...  but I can't for the life
of me figure out how to add my lesser used e-mails to my gpg key as
secondaries.  Every time I try, they become the primary uid, and
completely unsigned by the people who have signed my primary UID, as
well.  Not sure how to add the secondaries...  but I figure one of you
will know.  How do I add secondary UIDs to my gpg key?

Re: using different encryption key in evolution

2014-07-13 Thread Doug Barton

On 07/10/2014 12:44 PM, Richard Ulrich wrote:

I realize, this question is more related to evolution than gpg directly,
but people here might know better than in an evolution mailing list
(which I'm not subscribed anyway).

Suppose a company has a mail address that is distributed among a group
of employees. E.g. if I send a mail to sa...@compa.ny that mail is
forwarded to al...@compa.ny and b...@compa.ny.

Now I want to send an encrypted mail to sa...@compa.ny, but there is no
gpg key to that address. Instead I find keys for some people that will
finally get the mail.


If you know you have keys for all the recipients of the sales@ list, you 
can create a group in your gpg.conf file which contains the key Ids. You 
may have to experiment with the group "name" to get the interface 
between evolution and gnupg to recognize the group name as an e-mail 
address. For example:


group sa...@company.ny = key1 key2 ...
group  = key1 key2 ...

etc.

hope this helps,

Doug

good points. thanks for the insight. i see some tweaks i'll incorporate.
