<p>if you have a homepage, you can upload your .asc file to the
homepage and link to that key. Otherwise you could indeed link to
your public key on the key servers:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href=
"http://pgp.mit.edu/pks/lookup?op=vindex&search=0x92193A6311A48B5F">
http://pgp.mit.edu/pks/lookup?op=vindex&amp;search=0x92193A6311A48B5F</a>
or</li>
<li><a href=
"http://pgp.mit.edu/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x92193A6311A48B5F">
http://pgp.mit.edu/pks/lookup?op=get&amp;search=0x92193A6311A48B5F</a></li>
</ul>
<p>The problem with that is, that still many people will not know
what to do with that information. What's needed is a KB-article
explaining what a signature is, how to retrieve a public key and
then how to verify it (OS dependent).</p>
<p>If I find some time, I will try to create a KB-article covering
just that. Then users could link to that article and their public
key and recipients unfamiliar with OpenPGP will have a chance to
understand what is going on.</p>
<p>All the best,<br>

basics: <a href=
"https://emailselfdefense.fsf.org/en/index.html">https://emailselfdefense.fsf.org/en/index.html</a></p>
<p>Also the upcoming GPG Keychain will have an option to easily
send your public key via mail.</p>
<p>All the best :)<br>
