Yeah, that's what I thought too. But I recall some discussion been
taking place in mutt-users (can't remember when, not any kind of
picture...) about $pgp_create_traditional and it not working properly.
This was why I wrote this message in the first place. 

Do you have any idea why clearsigning an email with signature brakes the
signature delimiter? It always changes from "-- " to "- --" and that's
not fun at all.

Ok, this is all I needed to know, thanks. :-)

I've been using both pretty randomly, although I've sent quite a bit
more traditionally signed mails than PGP/MIME. I even had
$pgp_create_traditional ``ask-no'' -- switched that to ask-yes. Thanks
for your answer.
