KMail signs emails in cleartext. Mutt uses PGP/MIME, I think. (My terminology might not be 100% right, but it's something like that). KMail (at least in KDE 3.0 on RH 8.0) doesn't recognize PGP/MIME signatures - all I get is an attachment, but it doesn't do the check.
Evolution also does PGP/MIME, not cleartext (in fact, Evolution 1.0.8 had a bug in it that it can't even verify some cleartext signed emails, so every email I got from Aaron would say it was invalid when it wasn't - as of 2 AM today I'm moved to KMail at home. :-) ). The email I sent last night that had the Enigmail link in it was signed from Evolution 1.0.8, so here at work I can't even check my own signature. So, my guess is the Enigmail has a problem with cleartext signed email. (I'm not signing this so Richard can actually read it without his mail client bombing out. ;-) ) Ian On Thursday 06 February 2003 12:50 pm, Jeffrey Clement wrote: > I use mutt for e-mail.
