Hi guys,
What's the proper way to provide my encrypted postal address to every vendor when placing a multi-vendor order?
I've added products from three different vendors to my cart, but there's only one address field; I guess the right way is encrypt the address with every public key and then paste all the encrypted blocks, one after another, stating clear which block is for each vendor.
Am I right? I just want to make it as easier as possible for the vendors, and I wonder if there's some kind of de-facto standard for this case.
Thanks in advance.

You can encrypt to multiple recipients at the same time. So one block of GPG ciphertext can be decrypted by multiple vendors.
In kleopatra when you select your vendor's public key ("For whom do you want to encrypt?"), just add multiple public keys instead of just one.
In GPA, when selecting public keys, hold control to select multiple keys.
On the command line each recipient needs their own -r argument. Like this:
gpg --encrypt -r Vendor1 -r Vendor2 -r Vendor3 address.txt

God, of course... can't believe I missed that :o
Thanks a lot for your help!
