The Add Encryption Key dialog is used to translate key phrases into actual keys that are used by the encryption algorithm.  The key phrase is lost in this process.  The resulting generated key is actually a display key that must be manipulated by Beyond FTP to produce the string that is used by the encryption algorithms.  While display keys are unique and may be compared to determine whether the initial phrases agree, they are useless to anyone attempting to decrypt messages using one of our standard algorithms. 

Warning:  Key phrases must match exactly.  They are case-sensitive and spacing sensitive.  The key phrase cannot be retrieved from the display key!  If you lose the key that was used to create an archive, it is irretrievable!  Know your pass phrases!
