I've ceased sending signed messages to mailing lists because of all the

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.

I have to disagree. It is still far better to conform to the standards.
Lets also remember that Outlook Express deletes *all* messages with
*any* attachment, so the problem is not limited to pgp signatures.

OE v6 perhaps; my v5 does not.
