Actually, for my own reasons (as stated in another message in this thread), I don't advise to disable PGP wrap settings. As I've mentioned before - that strategy only really works if you only use PGP with a particular type of message editor. If you need to use PGP for wider uses, with a variety of editors, a wrap setting in PGP can be very useful. So - instead of simply advising people to disable PGP wrapping, I usually recommend finding relative settings that work with a variety of different editors. > I also was given the advice to disable auto format because it messed > up my PGP sig. Since then no problems anymore. Auto-format in TB! will no more mess up PGP signatures than will auto-wrap (in other words, if relative wrap settings are properly set, it won't mess anything up). Auto-format only messes things up when you want to make a list, or short lines - with no blank line in between (auto-format wants to wrap all lines not separated by a blank line into single paragraphs). Still - this has nothing to do with messing up PGP signatures. > So in short: disable PGP wrapping and auto format should keep you > out of trouble.

Maybe this set up isn't > what experienced users have, but it works for me ;-) I disagree (see above). What you really need to do is think about how each editing option works, then use them accordingly. "Auto-format" will wrap text to the very same column as "auto-wrap" will, so if one's PGP wrap is set to a greater number, messages will not be re-wrapped by PGP, and signatures will be fine.
