I've set my GnuPG to automatically fetch public keys that it encounters that aren't on its keyring. After reading groups and mailing lists with a sizable population of message-signers, I have 466 public keys with 5113 unique signatures. I haven't experienced any noticeable performance issues with having them all on one keyring. =2D-=20 Kirk Strauser "94 outdated ports on the box, 94 outdated ports.
