I couldn't give a date... but I'd not buckle under it.  It's microsoft
using their position again I believe.  I'm going to get mutt working on
here, I think that supports s/mime signs, and I'll check out TB!.
Fortunately most products on unix/linux are all RFC compliant... unlike
90% of MS products ;)  If they were compliant, we'd not need to have two
different options in TB! to read the signatures.
