not only that, but even if we WERE to support sending in-line PGP, most likely other clients would still break because we'd be too smart and CRLFify/QP encode/From escape/etc the text before signing it but the other mailers wouldn't expect this and so would still fail to verify because they are BROKEN!
No one is asking (at least not on this thread) to be able to send in-line PGP - all that's being requested is that I be able to respond to messages sent by mailers that do, without having to do some arbitrary cut-and-paste dance to quote in the reply.
To summarise: Evolution is not broken, the other mailers are.
Granted - agreed - no argument - and I (for one) don't want it to be broken in it's behavior, just to "play nicely" with other (broken) mailers. -- Dan Berger [dberger ix netcom com] http://home.ix.netcom.com/~dberger Inter arma silent leges "History teaches that grave threats to liberty often come in times of urgency, when constitutional rights seem too extravagant to endure." - Thurgood Marshall A982 E6B1 CB2F 7A49 843A 9297 DA73 4371 1F54 8D0C
