Krister, PGPTray reports the signature as "Bad" because the actual
clear-text... text that you can read... differs from the clear-text found
when PGPTray re-computes your message from the Message Digest... the
ciphertext found at the bottom of your signature. My not signing your Key
would only result in an "Invalid" designation, but the signature itself
would still read "Good" as long as the message content had not been
tampered with.

Mike Yetto actually found the problem with your messages. Your MailTo:
link was created by you using one long line, but what PGPTray sees is that
very line broken down into two parts:

KE> Obtain my pgp keys by sending a mail to this address:
KE> mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=Send_pgp_keys

which I think is a reflection of the Auto-Wrap setting in Options/Editor
Preferences. Krister, can you redo that line, but this time put a hard
return at the end of "address:", as you see it above? That should be all
that is necessary for both the Plugin and PGPTray to verify your signature
as "Good".
