This public key (or these public keys) in https://www.irf.se/pgp/matsl can't be imported. It works in other webmail clients.

Are there any restriction on how big the keys can be?

Hello,

Developers have checked this, and it looks like the problem is caused by Version tag missing in the key. If you edit the file like this:

Code:
-----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----
Version: 1

mQINBFrPIzEBEADiu3EGlABCeNjp5oKMbM1TkgFlruT8fzkdSOCDXLMFOP9PhNN8
...


- then the key is accepted just fine.

Really hard to say if it's a bug or rather an intended behavior, all the keys I've encountered so far have that tag. Internally, we're using OpenPGP.js library, and developers will investigate, maybe it's possible to adjust the code so that Version tag is no longer required.

Ok, thanks for the answer and workaround. The public key was generated with gpg and I as I said it works with other mail clients.

In gpg you can give the option --emit-version to get the Version tag (if the option is given more than one time you can get minor, micro and operating system id).

The deafult is to have no Version tag.

So it seems that the Version tag is optional and programs that are parsing keys should be able to handle missing Version tags.

Just heard from the developers, they confirmed the issue is caused by a bug in the code. They have corrected the bug, a fix will be available in the next build of the product.

Hello again!

I tested to import a secret subkey because I don't want to import the secret master key into webmail. But when I tried to sign with that key I got "No private key" was found.

Could that be fixed?

OpenPGP.js library doesn't seem to support that yet:

Feature Request: Handle 'export-secret-subkeys' keyrings from GPG

Hopefully they implement that in the near future, then we'll be able to use that update.

We still use an older version of OpenPGP.js, and aside from upgrading the library version, seems like this would require interface changes as well. If you believe this feature would be useful for others users of WebMail, please feel free to post a feature request at https://afterlogic.uservoice.com/. Thank you.
