I guess the command got distorted. It should have been:
gpg --export --armor alajal at gmail.com > mykey.txt
You can also use:
gpg --export --armor alajal at gmail.com --output mykey.txt
(No mailto: before the email address.
mykey.txt is where the ASCII version of the key would be saved. By
default, the output of gpg --export goes to the standard output. By
using > or --output you redirect the output to a file.
