Frequently Asked Question

How can I change a public key for one of my non-Countermail contacts?
Last Updated 9 years ago

This is how our public key database works:
-Public key database is available to all users
-If you add a public key, it will also be available to other users.
-We do not store info about the user who uploaded the public key, no one can see who uploaded a specific key

Once a public key is uploaded it can not be changed/removed by a normal end-user. This is done for security reasons.
If an uploaded key needs to be changed, our staff must do it.

It must be verified by the key owner that the new key really is his/her, the easiest way to do this is to send an encrypted and signed email to us, with the new key attached. This procedure is only needed for non-Countermail domains. The owner must send the public key from the email address which is connected to the public key to accounts@countermail.com

Below is the public key for accounts@countermail.com:
