Well, on the Majordomo part, the author has informed me that a SIGNIFICANTLY
later version (than what is included in RedHat 6) has been patched to fix
this behavior.
The PGP question is also supposed to be being worked on...I can't say for
sure whether it's the first message each DAY, or just the first message each
time I sign a message after shutting down and restarting X/KDE. I know for
sure that it happens the first time I walk in and turn on the monitor each
day and start X (I typically shut down X and start Seti@home when I leave
work.) Then if I start KMail and send a PGP signed message it gives a false
"bad signature" message for the first single AND first multiple-recipient
messages. That's the most detail I can give you. I'll have to check and see
if it happens each time I log out of X and restart it or whether it's the
just the first DAILY message. That's a VERY good point you've raised. :-)
