So I see it as an > attachment every time. The parts of Greg's message that you replied to above, as shown in Mutt's message view screen are: I 1 <no description> [text/plain, 7bit, us-ascii, 2.1K] I 2 <no description> [applica/pgp-signat, 7bit, 0.2K] So, there *is* an application/pgp-signature part, but it's the second. The first one, which is text/plain, contains the message text. For a while, I considered using `set pgp_create_traditional=yes' in my .muttrc, to avoid problems with broken mailers like Outlook Express. It quickly gets annoying to users who use better mailers :-/ - Giorgos To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
