Troubleshooting
# Key not found? Try: gpg --keyserver hkps://keys.openpgp.org --recv-keys 3FE389CD # Encryption failed? Check if key is imported: gpg --list-keys ejfox # Still stuck? # Just email me normally and ask for help
Why Encrypt?
Your email provider, government agencies, and random hackers can read normal emails. PGP makes messages unreadable to everyone except me.
Takes 30 seconds to set up, protects everything forever.
