No. Onno sent a followup to Patricks message, writing only a few lines on the top of his message. The rest consists of a full quote of Patricks message. This message was signed inline and thus, Patricks signature was also included in the full quote. Enigmail *will* try to decode signatures in the first quote level and succeeded this time. It also displays the borders of what was signed. Did you see them? > Something strange here. Nothing strange, given the shortcomings of inline-PGP combined with the drawbacks of top-posting and full quotes. If Onno would have replied writing his comments inline (which would have been polite and is preferred on this list) and would have used an OpenPGP aware mailer, Patricks signature would have been automatically removed, and everything would have been as it should be. Even if not using an OpenPGP aware mailer, it would have been smart, if Onno removed the OpenPGP signature of Patricks message. Even if not, Patricks signature would have been broken by Onnos inline written answers. Things like that happen from time to time on this list and others, and nobody except the sender can do something about it.
