Yeah, they should probably only use one technique to sign their messages. inline PGP/GPG is deprecated, IIRC, because it doesn't handle attachments well (or at all?). S/MIME is preferred now but, inline PGP/GPG, being a bit older, has better support. I know kmail still has some ease-of-use issues with S/MIME, but I don't think it affects correctness. -- "If there's one thing we've established over the years, it's that the vast majority of our users don't have the slightest clue what's best for them in terms of package stability." -- Gentoo Developer Ciaran McCreesh
