Hello mutt lovers, I still have not found a good way to check PGP signatures. The root problem is that many (probably more than half) signatures on mailing list messages, including this one, are broken. I have given up on addressing that root problem, but I would still like to check signatures on private messages on occasion. I know about the variable crypt_verify_sig, but it's not a real solution in itself (ie. when set to ask-no) because I still waste time responding to the prompt. I could set it in a folder hook to yes or no depending on the folder, but I am also trying to avoid folder hooks as much as possible, with their complexity and opacity [1].
The ideal solution I dream about is a specific command/keystroke to check the signature of a message, when already viewing that message. Strange as it is this natural command doesn't seem to exist - or am I wrong about this? And if I'm right would it make sense to add such a command? [1] How many people really know the exact rules by which the pattern in a folder hook matches? -- Please don't Cc: me privately on mailing lists and Usenet, if you also post the followup to the list or newsgroup.
