I have a source hack that leaves PGP Encrypted and Signed messages as inline

The reason I did this was because the PGP/MIME stuff was garfing up the
official PGP Outlook plugin. It can't seem to handle PGP/MIME attachments
elegantly.
I don't know who is on higher moral ground, the PGP/MIME folks for the NAI
folks. All I want is a solution that works on more clients as painlessily
as possible.
I wouldn't mind seeing a .muttrc variable along the lines of "set pgpmime =
yes/no" that does this functionality.
If anyone wants the source hack, email me offline.
I tried using signatures at work for a while and a lot of LookOut! people
complained. Is there a standard for digital signatures?

PGP/MIME is what mutt uses to send pgp-encrypted and -signed messages. The idea is basically this: You take the message, then MIME-encode it entirely. The result looks like this (for example): Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable This attachment contains umlauts: =E4=F6=FC=DF Now, this entire MIME body part is encrypted/signed, and eventually put into some more MIME sugar. Here, PGP only ever touches us-ascii text (with which it deals nicely); the actual character set conversions are left to the software which interprets the inner MIME layers. -- Thomas Roessler [EMAIL PROTECTED]

If you read the manual, you'll discover that if $signature ends with
a pipe ("|"), then it is run as a program and the output is used as your
signature. That's what I do.

How can I include cookies from fortune for example into my signature? Answer directly please. You probably missed the other replies if you're not on the list. (That's a problem with using using lists/subscribe -- lots of lists are open.) Anyway, from the other replies I gather that the usual command for fortune is "/usr/games/fortune -s". In that case, put this in your .muttrc: set signature="/usr/games/fortune -s |" to have just a fortune. If you want to use a standard sig plus a fortune, try: set signature="cat .sig.std; /usr/games/fortune -s |" Or get fancier: set signature="/usr/games/fortune -s | fmt -w 45 | paste .sig.std - |" ...you get the idea. This last is essentially what I used below, except that I had to fake /usr/games/fortune since I didn't install it on my system. You can just replace all the stuff with "~/bin/foo |", where "~/bin/foo" is some script that creates the signature text however you please. -- -D."Spoke with Camus today about my cookbook.

About PGP encryption
Hi!
I've got a problem out here with which, I hope, you can help me to cope.
Preface:
As you probably noticed I'm from Ukraine and we usually use Russian or
Ukrainian langs here. My output CP is set to Koi8-r. There is an option
in .muttrc called "charset-hook" for decoding messages on-the-fly.
The problem is:
If I recieve a normal text in charset which was hooked in .muttrc
everything decodes just fine. But in case of encrypted PGP message
which originally was in other CP than Koi8 then it just decrypts and
doesn't send it to decoder of CP's.
Possible solve:
To switch decrypting and decoding. First decrypt then decode the output of
decryption. Guess it should help.
Any other variants how to do this in other way?
P.S. How can I include cookies from fortune for example into my signature?
Answer directly please.
