Private OpenPGP Key is not encryted after export?
hello,
I have created an pgp keypair in thunderbird and exported the private key, where I needed to enter a password. Without the password I was not able to import th key into another Thunderbird. But I was able to import the key in openkeychain (android app) without using the password. I am now able to use the improted key to sign and decrypt messages. I did think the key was encrypted with the password I had to choose when exporting the key, but clearly it is not. I don't understand why that is?
kind regards
