This causes the messages to fail the signature check (it doesn't even strip the armor correctly) until manually massaged. Is this a problem for anyone else? If so, perhaps the next release of pgp should consider automatically stripping trailing blanks on "+clearsig" type signed msgs, and perhaps try to account for other "mailer" type anomalies. -- Rob Stampfli rob@colnet.cmhnet.org The neat thing about standards: 614-864-9377 HAM RADIO: kd8wk@n8jyv.oh There are so many to choose from.
