Hi Greg,

@1-Jan-2004, 18:48 -0600 (02-Jan 00:48 UK time) Greg Strong [GS] in
mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] said to Marck:

GS>>> The hidden signatures is referred to as PGP/MIME? Correct?

MDP>> No idea. Never heard it referred to as that before.

GS> So what is the hidden signature of PGP (or GPG) called?

At the risk of repeating myself, I have never heard of "Hidden
signatures" but PGP/MIME sounds like the thing. Although, as a
technical purist, "hidden" is, perhaps, a misnomer. TB hides them I
suppose. But send a PGP/MIME signed message to a non PGP/MIME aware
mail client and they'll be complaining about the 'odd' attachment of
with this header "Content-Type: application/pgp-signature". The
attachment is clearly visible and not hidden at all.
