no, you use the seller's public key (what you posted here) to encrypt your address. you post the resulting cypher in the address field, then only the seller can decrypt it by using their private key.

1. Do we know that Symantec (owner of the program that was used to generate that key) won't rat you out ?

2. Stop. You're not ready to order yet.

3. Read - http://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion/index.php?topic=131.0

4. Come back in three days. Most problem are solved after a good night sleep. I know many times I've asked a question and then 45 minutes later I figured it out.

Thanks all. Now I understand. You paste this in the "to" section of the email. I am a little slow sometimes.

Please correct me if I'm wrong! Thanks again SR!!

Yeah- so I was totally wrong. I figured it out and took the advice of you guys to sleep on it. I finally got it and it works! It was confusing at first but all good. Thx for the help!

Nice one bookworm, please remember there's no such thing as a silly question. We have an excellent guide on getting started on GPG here as stated above but if you need any further help, please don't be ashamed to ask!
