With S/MIME, normally (although not required) the signing certificate is
embedded within the S/MIME signature. With PGP this is not the case. If
you want to send a key by email, you need to explicitly attach the key.
The Key ID, is something similar to a fingerprint of a certificate. A
long key ID is practically unique (a key ID is generated based on the
fingerprint). You can search for the key with the key ID on the PGP key
servers and import it. Most keys are stored on the key servers (but not
all)
