Hello everybody
as you can see my key is about to expire and I need to create a new one.
When I created it I didn't know which algorithm was the best choice and
I just chose the first option. Now I still don't know which is the best
to choose and why. Is it one more secure than the other? I don't think
so but I think there are some difference that make one algorithm
suitable for some uses than the other.

I was thinking to create one rsa key and one subkey for encryption. What
do you think? What do you advise?

Thank for you attention

Noiano
