I have noted that there seems to be a limit to the number of PGP
keys on the ring. If the number of keys exceeds this number
(400?) then simply deleting the expired keys, keys that have
been replaced with more recent ones, and perhaps a few contacts
that you don't expect to hear from would reduce the number of
keys to less than the "limit."
Of course, after doing this, it's necessary to close JBN and
open it again.
I wonder if, when exporting the keys and reimporting them,
you aren't simply eliminating the expired keys and thus
reducing the total number of keys on the ring to < 400?
