"textContent": "That sounds like a misunderstanding.\n\nA PGP/GPG-Key is bound to an email address. Part of it’s purpose is to prove an email is actually written by the owner of that address.\n\nIf you have an PGP/GPG-Key for myrealidentity@emailprovider.com then you should use it only for email communication for this address.\n\nIf you are using an alias like myalias@emailprovider.com then you have to create a PGP/GPG-Key for that alias and use it for all communication using that alias.\n\nUsing myrealidentity@emailprovider.com PGP/GPG-Key for myalias@emailprovider.com would do two bad things:\n\n * It would reveal that myrealidentity is most likely behind myalias.\n * It would not ensure that myalias is actually myalias.\n\n",
