Don't forget that deleting a userid just deletes it from your local copy of=
=20
the key. Once you have uploaded your key to a public keyserver, it is not=20
possible to really delete any part of that key. To remove a userid that you=
=20
don't use anymore, you have to revoke it (currently revoke the self signatu=
re=20
on that userid with revsig, but IIRC a command to revoke a userid directly=
=20
should apper in the next gpg release).
