Common practice is to put that key on some external media and lock it in a box. If your gpg key is ever compromised, you'll want to revoke it so nobody else can use it.
You can send your public key to others if you want them to sign it, but there are a couple of other things you and they should do in that case, and that includes things like meeting in person and looking at picture ID cards and checking the fingerprint of the key before signing it. Search for "key-signing party" for a full set of instructions on that.
I can't comment on the Seahorse stuff, because I've never used it. In refracta-6.0.6, you can install Sylpheed from "Install Software" in the system menu, and the procedure is almost identical to what you do in Claws. Under "Configuration -> Preferences for current account -> Privacy" you can set your preferences and select which gpg key you want to use.
