Encrypting email

We were talking about email security at the meeting last night. I'm
trying to setup pgp with Thunderbird.

1. I have a public and private key
2. It's only set to last 6 months
3. I put the public key on a key server.

I had know idea what a key server was until I started this project. You
don't have to use a key server but they seem like a good thing.

You put your public key on the key server for others to look up. This
email has my digital signature. You can check if it's really me by
getting my pgp key from the key server.

I won't know if this works until someone tries to verify my email.

I used the following information to setup pgp in Thunderbird.
