Now let's have a look at a signed message I received from
The OpenPGP status bar tells that the signature is valid, although untrusted.
This is mostly normal, and just means that John Random Hacker's public key
has a trust lower than ultimate in my public keyring, which is the default for
freshly imported keys. As we explained earlier in Section 7.7.2. , trust is
subjective and related to how we obtained someone's public key. The most
important point here is that OpenPGP verified that the message has been
correctly signed with the specified public key.
Note that the colour of the OpenPGP status bar is now blue. Accordingly, a pen
with a question mark is shown near the email headers and in the bottom right
corner.
From the Details menu you can operate directly on the sender's key:
• View OpenPGP PhotoID allows you to see the PhotoID, if any;
• Sign Sender's Key... allows you to sign the sender's key;
• Set Owner Trust of Sender's Key... allows you to set the sender's key to
the desired trust.
These are just shortcuts, you can do the same operations from Key
Management as well.
