Re: PGP vs. certificate from Verisign

I am not an expert, but AFAIK at some time the key issuer have your *private* key because they issue the key. I am not comfortable someone else having my private key no matter if they claim they don't keep it.

Greetings,

I'm trying to get some expert opinions on which is better.  Using Outlook
2002, would it be better to use PGP to encrypt messages or use the built-in
option with a digital certificate from Verisign (or some other CA)?

Thanks,

Kamal
