Since Inline OpenPGP has (deprecated) after it:

deprecated adj. Said of a program or feature that is considered
   obsolescent and in the process of being phased out, usually in favor of
   a specified replacement. Deprecated features can, unfortunately, linger
   on for many years. This term appears with distressing frequency in
   standards documents when the committees writing the documents realize
   that large amounts of extant (and presumably happily working) code
   depend on the feature(s) that have passed out of favor. See also dusty
   deck.

I tend to us OpenPGP/MIME for signing my messages.  Granted, there is one 
list I'm on that I've discovered will bounce my messages if I use 
OpenPGP/MIME while they will go through if using Inline OpenPGP.  That is 
the exception though rather than the rule.  This list, Mandriva Newbie, 
'used' to work fine with OpenPGP up until a few months ago whenever the 
list software was changed (at least thats what I read).  Since then none of 
the list owners seem to give a damm whether OpenPGP works or not, at least 
I haven't seen any attempts to fix the problem.
