It may verify for some while it will not verify for others.

The problem here is that some of his signature lines were long. In the
message in question, three lines in his signature were 103 characters
long, while another was 143 characters long.

If you have auto-wrap toggled on in the editor settings, the fixed
width viewer will window wrap lines that exceed its window width. My
preview window width, at its present size, will accommodate lines with
up to 100 characters without wrapping. Since his tagline was 143
characters, it window wrapped and the signature was broken. Window
wrapping in the fixed width viewer equals the insertion of hard
returns at each window wrap point, and this breaks the signature when
checked with PGP Tray or GnuPG Shell. If you copy and paste the text
to another window, you'll see what I mean. The window wrapping that
TB! did is preserved.

OTOH, the RTFV does soft wrapping like most other viewers. Checking
with PGP Tray or GPG Shell therefore gives a good signature.

After all I've written, if you check the signature using the PGP
Plugin, then the check will show up a good signature, no matter
whether or not you're using the RTFV or FWFV. I assume you did the
signature check using the PGP plug-in? I was doing the checks with GPG
Shell.
