Hey Craig, that should be a rather simple task. Have you already created a key for yourself or is that still to be done?
In any case it would be good to have a look at our Quickstart Tutorial to understand how encrypting/signing mails can be done.
Also there's a section explaining how to create a key.
When that is done, simply select your key in GPG Keychain Access and hit Shift + CMD + K or via menu Keys > Send to keyserver
Then your key is uploaded to the key servers. Since all the key servers are synched it should show up on the MIT server in a day or quicker. Depending on the sync settings of that server.
You could also change the key server in GPG Keychain Access when you go to the program settings (CMD + ,). There you can enter the MIT server as a default if you like.
Hope this helps :)

Thanks Steve,
I think I have most of the nuts and bolts worked out now, have created and
registered keys and they seem to be working with the various email
addresses.
Take Care
