In general, they all sync with each other. I got your key off of pgp.mit.edu and certserver.pgp.com as well as horowitz.surfnet.nl, but one caveat is that the pgp.com ones don't always add their keys back out to the other servers. Of course sometimes there is a propogation delay of a day or two. - -- Brian Minton minton@csc.smsu.edu Caution: in case of rapture, this computer will be unoccupied!
