Hi,
I'm using Mutt 1.2.5i and GPG 1.0.4 on a Linux 2.2.16.
I have been told the encrypted email I'm sending does not have the
correct linebreaks.
This is a hexdump of a part of a message I have sent to him. Linebreaks
are platform-specific ("0A"; Unix style) instead of the platform-
independent ("0D0A", Internet-style).

This is what i have been told.
As I'm lacking knowledge at this point:
- Is this an issue at all?
- If it is, is it one caused by Mutt, GPG or something else?
- If it is, what is the best thing i can do solve this?
Relevant detail maybe, the command mutt uses when I sign and encrypt
email is (all on one line):
set pgp_encrypt_sign_command="pgpewrap gpg --passphrase-fd 0 -v --batch
--output - --encrypt --sign %?a?-u %a? --armor --always-trust -- -r %r
-- %f"
So, what is the next thing I can do best?
-R.
