How to import existing GPG keypair
I'm having trouble figuring out what directory that Mailpile reads gpg keypairs from. Is it possible to import my own gpg keys?
Yes, you can import your own GPG key. There are two routes on how Mailpile handles GPG keys:
- Using the system GnuPG; I believe this is the default.
- Using an internal library, which can be set through the Mailpile settings.
You want to use a keypair corresponding to a mail account you have setup in Mailpile?
What I'm trying to do is import my own gpg key that I generated outside of mailpile.
@Eggo-Plant You need to import it in you system GnuPG, from which Mailpile will take it up automatically https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/184947/how-to-import-secret-gpg-key-copied-from-one-machine-to-another
