"Could not retrieve public key for carl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
Curious as to why people sign with PGP and then don't submit their
keys to public servers... what's the point of default signing every
email you send?
Means that my email client goes to sleep for about a minute while it
tries to find and match a public key before it times out and gives up.
I get that PGP is useful... I don't get how it is useful signing every
email including ones going to thousands of list recipients, each of
whom then waste time trying to retrieve a public key.
