When I run: gpg --recv-keys 1E1C9C17


I get the following message:

akonstam cyrus ~]$ gpg --recv-keys 1E1C9C17
gpg: requesting key 1E1C9C17 from http server subkeys.pgp.net
gpgkeys: no key data found for http://subkeys.pgp.net/
gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.
gpg: Total number processed: 0

Let me share that to me the whole discussion of PGP signatures was very
unenlightening. I have no idea how to sign e-mail or validate a pgp
signed e-mail All the discussion seemed to me to be aimed at people who
knew all about this.

Before anyone gets offended let me admit you might reply RTFM.
