Ok, I will try this. But what about pgp7 sigs I can't verify with gnupg?
These happen sometimes, too.
(This said, I'm more and more ready to just blame it all on evolution -
saving the messages to an external file, and the signatures will verify
fine.)
btw, I'm having trouble with your sig, too.
gpg: Signature made Wed Apr 10 22:31:44 2002 CEST using DSA key ID
86ECAC0B
gpg: requesting key 86ECAC0B from wwwkeys.ch.pgp.net ...
gpg: key 86ECAC0B: invalid subkey binding
gpg: key 86ECAC0B: no valid user IDs
gpg: this may be caused by a missing self-signature
gpg: Total number processed: 1
gpg: w/o user IDs: 1
gpg: Can't check signature: public key not found
cheers
