% David pretty much covers the mutt specific aspects of this problem.

Thanks :-)


% Basically mutt isn't seeing these messages as signed/encrypted etc
% is due to the content headers. My ~/.procmailrc reads:
[snip] ---8<--- [snip]

FWIW, you might want to check into upgrading your mutt to a recent
version that can handle traditional PGP directly so that you don't have
to use the procmail method, which has been known to break messages.

% As David points out mutt can be patched to create_pgp_traditional (using
% David's mutt patch coctail is one soluton). You would then be able to add=
 a
% message-hook to set mutt to send traditional/inline signed/encrypted mess=
ages

You probably mean send-hook here.  It might be interesting to try writing
a message-hook that automatically checks for traditional pgp, though...


% to outlook-user@address.org or ~h "^X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express".
% Again this is covered in detail in the mutt-users list archive:

Yes.  Please don't start another discussion of it :-)
