I don't know if what you suggest would fiddle with the signature and then
produce a bad sig. Is there no other way to choose between an attached
signature and a text signed message with mutt?
Please, could anyone send to me the variables that need to be added in
~/.muttrc for mutt-i to work with pgp versions 2.6.3i and 5.0i, and with gpg
altogether? (or, a muttrc file with all of them)
TIA
Horacio.
