OK I have verified once again that this is the case. If I e-mail myself
the following message:

1. A boy's car died
2. Eddy fears goats
3. Helen ignores Jorge
4. Kelly likes Mike


Mutt will only display  lines 2-4. If I decrypt the file manually I will
get all lines. Can someone explain why?

Thanks,

	Luis
