Currently this is an ugly hack... I'll replace that by >= 0.3.14, < 0.4.0, 
as the 0.4 series is still marked as unstable. If 0.4 stabilizes, I'll add 
support for it (sorry, I have work for money, but that's not hacking 
balsa... :-//

The feedback I got was positive, so I'm actually encouraged to continue... 
As I mentioned before, I could not find a mua which is as nice as balsa 
*and* has gpg support. In a time where the "either you are with us or you 
are terrorists" guys rule the world, imho it is important to *show* you 
want to protect your privacy, even if you just exchange a few words with a 
friend.

As the cvs evolves rapidly and the patches in bugzilla don't apply cleanly 
any more, I plan to set up a web page within the next days containing the 
patch updated on a regular basis. So it would be great if you guys could 
then place a link on the balsa web page...

Cheers, Albrecht.
