Well thank you Marck... and David... for the clear explanation. That would
explain why *any* message generated in TB! that contains "Tabs" will not
cause the failure of PGP signatures.
Is there an RFC that would clarify how different Clients are to handle Tab
markers? Does The Bat follow that Standard, or adhere to generally
accepted practise in this regard? Should be we be pushing the Developers
to change the way TB! converts Tab markers from other Clients?
