excellent, thanks for the help! i'll look around for the patch, mutt.org i'm thinking. if i have an email to which i add an attachement and then choose the encrypt and sign options with pgp_create_traditional, will the attachement be encrypted as well or must i encrypt and sign it by itself? my guess is the latter as that appears to be why people are now moving (flame material, i know) towards the pgp/mime method. -- Peter Abplanalp Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP: pgp.mit.edu
