How to encript pgp emails


Just for fun I want to be able to send and recive encripted emails.  I remember something about verisign and pgp.  

Oddly enough I know the theory behind this however can not do anything practial with it (book stupid).  Just to add a twist I use linux and Kmail.  

I think I generate a PKI keypair, let others know about my public key.  Just how to I get the email client to use it?  How do I generate a keypair?  I also want to use pgp so windows users can exchange with me easyier.

It depends on who you want to trust you.
If you can mail cash i can let you have a 64 bit certificate personally autographed by bill gates for $899.

otherwise, look at verisign and thawte
