Key-Exchange by file rather than setup message

[ne20002]

I'd prefer to have a way to import my keys by asc-file. I have a pair I use with Enigmal and Mailvelope and I can transfer the keys vice versa.
Seems as if Delta Chat is importing only keys that has been written by itself. Setup-Message is either not aproriate as I don't want to send keys via email provider and is also not working.

what is not working with setup messages?
in general, delta chat allows importing keys not written by itself, however, of course, there can be issues with specific keys.

moreover, you can import and export .asc files at settings / advanced, for importing, keys must not be protected by a password, see deltachat/deltachat-core#144. however, the recommended way is a setup message.

This may be fixed by deltachat/deltachat-core#191. @ne20002 please be more specific, what you were trying to import. Please check if the asc file contains the private key after the public key and is NOT password protected.
