Clear text signatures should work, I am not sure what going wrong

Are you sure that vm-pgg is enabled?

Please check the message log and
(featurep 'vm-pgg) => Should be t

For GNU Emacs pgg.el comes with Gnus.

The message you have attached was in flowed format, probably

After fixing the headers it is working for me.
