Hi Peter,

I see Scotts text as normal in the preview window along with the PGP
attachment when using Outlook. Maybe you have an option/secuity setting in
your mail client that needs changing?

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 ?
