Well, I suppose that's wasn't entirely clear. If you're *not* using
PGP Tray, TB! calls pgplog.exe to display the signature verification,
and displays the decrypted message in the message list separate from
the original. But as far as TB! displaying the verified signature
information in-line (like Valid, Invalid, Good, etc), TB!'s plugin
doesn't do that (yet).
As for PGP Tray's use in verifying signatures, depending on which
version of PGP you're using, you'll get a pop up window with the
decrypted message *and* signature information. But, then you're not
using TB!'s plugin at all.
