A signature is only a method of verifying the contents of the email
have remained in tact from the original send, and they are from who
they say they are. As for the PGP/Mime standard, I think it works in a
similar way, as it has no way of signing some of the headers as they
don't exist yet, and if you think about how the mail is being signed,
it'd not be able to do that to headers as it can not guarantee the
order the headers arrive in at the other end, although I'd have to
look into that tonight when I get home, as my mail client at home uses
PGP/MIME, although doesn't have the redirect feature (that I know of
anyway).
