Good afternoon all,I received a message today through the kde-community mailing list, and Balsa tells me PGP signature is invalid. If I explicitly look at the signature part, the first line says PGP: signature: The signature is invalid. The following line is "Signature validity: The user ID is of unknown validity." I expect there is a difference between unknown validity and invalid. The key fingerprint does match the key ID of one of the RSA subkeys (using kgpg to check). Two odd things are that it also says "Signed on: never" and the "Subkey used" doesn't show any additional lines, whether the little triangle points right or down. So - is there a problem in the signature, or might I have something misconfigured? Thanks for any thoughts.
May not be relevant, but: I often get messages with supposedly invalid signatures, and it's caused by my POP server (AT&T/Yahoo/JPOP something) deleting (incorrectly) a leading dot on a received line. Agree with you and Albrecht that we should make the info less confusing when the signature is deemed invalid. Peter
