Welcome Steeda.
OpenPGP Security Info
Good signature from STEEDA <Steeda69 at gmail.com>
Key ID: 0x272E472F / Signed on: 5/27/08 11:02 PM
Key fingerprint: 6355 50B4 A2D0 42F5 D663 D7F8 7D65 59C0 272E 472F
Therefore your first signed message, format in-line, is OK, and your
signature verifies.
By separate mail I shall send you my public key, so that you can, if you
wish, import it into your public key ring, and set 'Per recipient rules'
to use that key when you want to send me an encrypted message.
That key will also enable you to check my OpenPGP signature.
Take care,
Charly
