Title: Quick Question Regarding Contacting Sellers!
Post by: Tokeapotamus on April 10, 2013, 11:06 pm
I didn't want to have to clog up the forums with my problem but i have looked everywhere for my answer and have had no success. I have looked at several GPG encryption tutorials and like to think i am pretty good at encrypting (to someones public key) as well as decrypting messages (that i have encrypted to myself or other private keys i have made). HOWEVER the one simple thing i don't understand is how do i actually send that encrypted message to someone?? Do they automatically get it somehow once i have encrypted it to their public key? Do i just encrypt my text and send the ecrypted block to them through SR messaging system? Do i use tormnail or some other program that i havent downloaded yet?? Please help! This is probably is stupid question but somehow or another this one specific detail has never been explained to me.

You just send the coded output using whatever method you choose to communicate :)

They don't automatically get it, and there's no need to use Tormail. Most vendors only check their Tormail when SR is down. Just copy your PGP message and paste it into a SR message, or address box if you're placing an order.
