I do this as well, but have some questions about good practice. Mail that g=
ets sent to
my home address (sroberts) also arrives at my work address. However, if it'=
s encrypted
I can't read it. So, I need to have my private key for sroberts at work, or=
 do I?

How is this dealt with? It's seeming complicated enough that I might as wel=
l just have
one secret keyring, and just copy it to any machines that I read/send mail =
at/from.
