GPG email encryption cPanel

Hi,

So I use email encryption for years now. I normally set this up locally by generating a keypair, and then provide my contacts with my public key. They obviously need it to encrypt emails they sent to me . I can decrypt because I have my private key.
Now I see in cPanel the option to import my public key. What possible purpose would this serve ?
I get it when importing public keys from friends, but my own public key ?

Thanks in advance
