Before you can make use of pgp in mail, you have to get pgp working.
After you've made your own keys, the next thing you'll need is the other
party's keys.  You've got to be able to manage getting them in some way.

*Then* you can move on to actually using them.  Though there's probably
a "understanding how the scheme works" process that you need to go
through, first, judging by your comments.

Start with the documentation, that's where most of the rest of us
started, and you're less likely to get given a bum steer by it.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
I read messages from the public lists.
