I'm trying to encrypt email on my remote system and read it on my |
13 |
local system. I'm the only one who needs to read the mail. |

Should I delete the private key from the remote system? It sounds |
16 |
like the public key can always be regenerated from the private key so |
17 |
there's no use in deleting it from the local system. |
