Hi Scott,
your replies come through on my computer as attachments with a pgp signature
which is a bloody nuisance as I have to open it to read what you have to
write.

I don't quite follow. The GPG attachment is not human readable, so I am not sure why you would have it as an attachment. Normally you will get a set of attachments from people, sometimes they are things like ICS files (user information like a calling card), GPG files (privacy and signatures), ICAL (calendar and events) and heaps more. Your mail program should either deal with them or you can ignore them.

  Is there any way of fixing that?

Not really. GPG is a standard on the internet for mail protection that we use extensively.

I use Thunderbird as my email client. I see Scott's posts as text in the normal way, but his PGP appears as an attachment. Maybe Peter S has some privacy settings that require him to check PGP files before he is allowed to read the text part of the message ?
Cheers,  John G.
