-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

it appears the enigmail has issues when the text of lines will get
wrapped. What I believe is happening is that the signature is made
before the text is converted to its unformatted version and
line-wrapped. So, the signature is created on this email before this
line gets wrapped. Then when the signature is checked again after the
text has already been wrapped the new line breaks calls the signature to
fail. I confirmed this by taking the failing signature and mail and
removing all line breaks and then passing it through gpg. When doing
this the signature is successful again. This also explains why when
editing the failed mail as a new mail the signature does not fail as the
line wrapping is already applied in the new mail.
