It is actually a .asc file, and not an .att like I thought it might
be. PGP just says the message isn't signed. I wish somebody would set
a standard for external signature files ;) The reason GPG is returning
those errors is because to get GPG to read the file, you have to do
exactly as I said in the original post (save key, save message, etc),
which will return a bad signature because all the date and time stamps
are going to be wrong, plus there is going to be additional stuff you
shouldn't have (such as headers). So I don't think you can verify this
signature, unless there is a method of doing it with externally
attached files. I know both my mail clients at home can handle the
attached signatures, but Sylpheed cannot actually handle inline
signatures (figures ;)).
