Hello madberry,

1) Which URL did you use to upload your key?
2) Did you receive any error message while uploading the key?
3) What is the key fingerprint?

Also make sure your spam filter isn't blocking mails from launchpad.net

Cheers.

Hello Diongo,

1) the key is oploaded at: http://keyserver.veridis.com:11371/search?q=madberry&p=1&id=4285467828652448465&created=1173954970000, http://wwwkeys.pgp.net:11371/pks/lookup?op=index&search=madberry and off course http://keyserver.ubuntu.com:11371/pks/lookup?search=madberry&op=vindex

2) there was no error message when uploading the key

3) 4BFC 72A9 8171 12CD 529C 5865 3B79 0A48 E731 9AD1

My spam filter is very conservative and dumps the mails he clams is spam in the trash and i look in there every day no e-mail from launchpad has come up in there(launchpad is also on my white list so it shouldn't block mails )

Thanks for the help....

Hello madberry,

Sorry I wasn't clear enough, in step 1, have you entered your key fingerprint in:

https://launchpad.net/~madberry/+editpgpkeys ?

Hi Madberry,

would you try again?

Please let us know the date and time (and your timezone) you retried as well the key fingerprint you're trying to re-validate. It seems now that you have 4 different keys in the keyserver.

Cheers.

Hello Diogo,

Just tryed it again at 1:09 AM U.S. Timezone: America/Tijuana.

The fingerprint is:
4BFC 72A9 8171 12CD 529C 5865 3B79 0A48 E731 9AD1

This is the key that is in validation right now...

And haven't gotten an email yet....

I hope we can solve this so i can become an Ubuntero....

Ok one of my other e-mail addresses: <email address hidden> and that worked....I will check my domian setting for blackdeath.nl later to see if the spam filter on there is still switched of maybe it's being blocked by that even tho i switched it off...

Thanks for your help so far...
