Show Properties of Another's Key


Purpose:


Lets you see the properties of another person's key. Important: The fingerprint, a unique identifier. To find out if a key that looks like it comes from the other person, but is maybe not (anybody can make a key that has anybody's name and e-mail on it), actually *is* that person's, call him or her up and compare the fingerprints: If they are the same, it is the same key.


Steps:


  1. Main Menu | Key Management | More With Other's Key... | Show Properties of Another's Key.
  2. If you have more than one key of another person, the program asks you which one you want to work on.
  3. The Properties screen opens. Click Back to exit the screen.
