Hi Rob,

It doesn't have a checkmark because "Sign complete text" does a
real-time *text* signature. "Sign when complete" will pay additional
attention to the PGP/MIME settings (which default to "Auto").

Text signed messages have no "Signed" headers and therefore no
checkmark.

A message signed when complete with PGP/MIME set to On will get a
proper PGP/MIME signature and will have a check mark in the message
list.

A message signed when complete with PGP/MIME set to Off will get a
text signature instead of a MIME one and have no check mark.

A message signed when complete with PGP/MIME set to Auto will get a
text signature instead of a MIME one and have no check mark
*sometimes*.

The rules for that last one are that PGP/MIME is used (and a
checkmark seen in the message list) ...

1) If there are 8 bit characters in the message
2) If any lines end with a space (like the cut mark line)
3) If any lines start with 'from'

otherwise, if none of the above conditions are met, the message will
be signed with a text signature and will get no checkmark.
