Using Reply-to with PGP
I have set up PGP with the following guide: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/openpgp-thunderbird-howto-and-faq#thunderbird:linux:tb115
Under test set up it says I only have to ensure that the from: email is correct.
But what if I use a different reply-to email address?
for example:
- Person A has a PGP is set up for PrsA@example.com, they also publish their public key in https://keys.openpgp.org/, Their reply-to email is PersonA-lastname@example.com
- Person A sends email with PGP public key attached to Person B. Person A already has Person B's public key.
- Person B receives the public key and saves the cert in relation to PersonA-lastname@example.com just to be sure they go to https://keys.openpgp.org/ to check but it is not there.
- Person B sends an encrypted email to their only known address (personA-lastname@example.com) with the encryption public key provided.
- Would Person A be able to receive the email?
tests I have done:
- I tried this with edward-en@fsf.org and I get an email back saying: Diagnostic-Code: smtp; 550 Edward needs reply-to or from to be the same as envelope from
- I tried this to myself and I am able to read the email.
