BLU Keysigning Party - FOLLOWUP - script to simplify signing and emailing keys

[jabr-mNDKBlG2WHs at public.gmane.org (John Abreau)]

I've learned that my signing script doesn't account for keys with
embedded JPEG images, and possibly other items.

My script grabs all uid's from a key and assumes they're all
email addresses. An embedded JPEG ends up being interpreted
as the email address "uid".

Before sending out the generated emails, you might want to
remove any that attempt to send to "uid".
