        Yeah, so it did here. I don't want to raise a dead issue (though it
seems not to be dead yet), but can someone (possibly himself) explain to me
what Justin R. Miller <justin@solidlinux.com> meant by:

        That was my target with this "test". I put in some non-English
characters in my message (αινσϊ etc) and everything went fine.

        And, again, I'm also an advocate of plain-text signing (and
encripting) in e-mail messages. If it indeed has issues with some character
sets, then it can't be considered a portable and standard method of sending
gpg'ed messages, but if it doesn't...

Right, stop that! It's silly!
