Hi John,

I did the same, and found the same, but I did though manage to send myself an 
encrypted email from the phone, using an imported test key pair I had sent 
myself, so it could be that only iPhone/iPGMail generated keys with show there.

I have written to the developer to ask, and I shall let us all know how they 
respond.

As well, of great concern also is the requirement to actually email your 
key-pair across the internet to get it in the device that in your hand!!! 
throughout all security in doing do.

My advice would be the at least make sure you use mail server with SSL on both 
IMAP/POP & SMTP to provide at least some form of protection to your key-pairs.

Glad to see something that actually works and it can only get better eh :-)

thanks,


rains
