RFC2015. nuff said.
but as for handling the traditionl pgp" messages -
have you checked out the command "check-traditional-pgp"
and the variable "pgp_create_traditional" yet?
> User-Agent: Mutt/1.3.22.1i
this version was announced on
2001-08-30 - almost a year ago.
in the meantime Thomas Roessler added
the "pgp_create_traditional" command.
so i think you should upgrade. ;-)

OK, I'm giving up: pgp_create_traditional now creates text/plain;
x-mutt-action={pgp-encrypt,pgp-sign}.

Add a function check-traditional-pgp which can be used to
handle old-style PGP messages and/or parts more easily.
