PGP doesn’t require the use of global directories so you can’t do strong validation.

This is a bypass game on something like proof point url protection that rewrites URLs to go through a central redirect so that reputation check can be separated from reputation delivery, usage detected, and one liner URLs still work. I’m over a decade out of this space so take with a grain of salt.

The tool could do a better job inspecting “oh that’s a pgp formatted massage”. You could probably just route them all to spam and almost no one would notice.
