I agree, but I don't have that authority.
I've ceased sending signed messages to mailing lists because of all the complaints from Outlook users... it always amazes me that so many otherwise highly intelligent people insist on using broken tools :(
Unfortunatley when one mail program is used by so many people, bugs become features. This week, we can't fight this. That means that we either need to use tools that that can inter-operate with those bugs or not participate on the Internet. There is no reason that a PGP signature needs to be sent as an attachment. Evolution has got to be changed to add a code block at the end of the message. -- Edward J. Weinberg, edw q5comm com Q5 Comm, LLC T. 914-713-7222 F. 914-713-7227
