That's a PGP/MIME signature.

I decided to use them on this list even though this signature type isn't
supported by the current full release version.

Why? This signature type makes the message body text cleaner since
there's no signature text present to clutter the message. It's all
hidden in the headers. I also know how it's been trying to justify to
members why the cluttering is warranted in the case of my signing
messages to this list.

PGP/MIME is therefore a godsend. Between Marck, Leif, myself and the
members who use PGP/MIME supported versions of TB!, i.e., beta versions
<g>, we can ensure that my messages are really from me. :)
