My Horde is in German, so I try to translate the German text UI  
elements to English and hope they match the originals.

I see two boxes:

Public PGP Keyring

   * Importing PGP keys here, tries to associated the uploaded keys  
(via their key IDs) with entries
     in the Turba addressbook. This fails for me because my Kolab v2  
backend. (I need to invest time into
     debugging this, but that's another issue)

You public/private PGP Key

   * your public key - [ view ][ details ][ send key to public key server ]

   * your private key - [ forget password ][ view ][ details ]

   * and a button: [ delete current key ]

I can't see any clickable link for updating my (own) public PGP key here.

The bottom button for deleting my current private key and re-importing  
the private key after that works well (tested some days ago). But  
re-importing my private key won't update the public counterpart of the  
key.

My use case for updating my public PGP key is:

   * my public PGP key has an expiry set
   * the expiry is pro-longed every 1-2 years
   * when attaching my pub PGP key to mails sent via IMP, I'd love
     to have this attached key as best up-to-date as possibe

So again my question: what is the exact workflow to update my own  
public private key in Horde?

Thanks+Greets,
Mike
