Keyring Fetch
=============

   The function `mc-pgp-fetch-from-keyrings' will attempt to fetch a
key from a set of keyrings on the locally accessible filesystem.  This
is useful if your organization maintains a large common public keyring
whose entire contents you do not wish to duplicate on your own ring.  It
is also useful if you download a copy of the global public ring from the
key servers (Note: Key Servers).

   The variable `mc-pgp-fetch-keyring-list' controls this behavior.  It
is a list of file names of public keyrings which this function will
search, in order, when seeking a key.  The default value is `nil',
meaning this search will always fail.
