Hi,
everybody starts at some time and at that is a newbie and makes newbie
mistakes. I started with pgp in 1997 and - of course - made newbie
mistakes: I did not create a revokation text and I did not store the
passphrase anywhere.
Now - over the times - I wonder if I can revoke those keys. The email
addresses don't exist anymore so nobody could send encrypted messages
using those keys. So there is no real danger there. Although the old
unuseable keys clog up the list.
Is there any chance how I could delete or revoke them? I only have the
public parts of those keys, of course. The secret parts are long
vanished into data nirvana.
