You can try it with my signature delimiter. You'll see the extra

Allie, I just sent a message to myself. It contained several empty
lines at the end. When I received it, there were no empty lines at the
end. (Checked this by marking with the mouse.)

I did the same on TBOT, again the trailing empty lines are gone. Easy
to see, as tehre is a Yahoo-footer.

And here is the surprising part: When I check my Sent folder, the
message there has no trailing empty lines either. So they are cut off
by TB even before the message is sent.

 It's the GnuPG plug-in that specifically does this stripping of
 trailing blank lines.

 Signing with GPG Shell leads to preservation of blank spaces.

I don't pretend to know the difference between the GnuPG plug-in and
the GPG Shell, but maybe the former signs after TB's editor has cut
off the empty lines, while the latter does the signing before saving
(and thus, when TB's editor saves the message, the empty lines are not
trailing any more but followed by more characters, namely the sig).

with you. This does occur when nothing else is done with the message
text prior to being actually sent by TB!. However, we're not
referring to this.

If you put line feeds after your signature and manually sign with

Even if you manually sign with the PGP plug-in, extra line feeds
will be stripped. However, the PGP plug-in will leave or insert a
line feed before it's signature insertion.

I think we are. I think the plug-in kicks in after the save action
of TB, which cuts off the extra empty lines. the shell version does
its action before that.

 We're referring to what happens to those extra line feeds when
 the message is being signing by the PGP/GnuPG plug-in.

Yes, I agree. But I believe it's the when the signing is done.

 If you put line feeds after your signature and manually sign with
 the GnuPG plug-in the extra line feeds are stripped.

While I am repeating myself, I don't think it's the GnuPG plug-in that
strips the extra line feeds. Read on:

 This is without even hitting the send key.

What if TB executes a save, which strips the extra lines, and the
result is what the plug-in is executed on? *This is my point.*

 However, if I sign with GPG Shell, the line feeds inserted by my
 signature template are preserved.

The shell (which is external) won't execute the save first, so the
extra lines are not cut off.

Remark: I don't know whether this is what actually happens, but it
does make sense from a programmer's POV.

You may very well be right on this since signing with either the PGP
or GNUPG plug-in immediately after composing and without hitting the
send key does strip the extra line feeds at the end. Extra line
feeds are stripped even when not signing so the plug-ins may very
well be just innocent bystanders.

I do concede your point Thomas. :))

Actually, you haven't. Your choices are: use the plugin and be
forced to choose a line separator (see my sig) because all trailing
blank lines are stripped or to use the GPGShell tray tool and allow
it to do your clearsigning for you (in which case spaces are
preserved)

Do this:

 signature. The only thing that works is to put a printable character

TB's editor will cut off any trailing blanks at the end of the line
(with the exception of the one after the two dashes in the sig
delimiter), and any trailing lines at the end of the text.

Sorry, I don't know any other way.
