Eugene, why have your recent posts showed up with DOUBLE signatures?

Message was signed with unknown key.
The validity of the signature cannot be verified.
Status: No signature found
Message was signed by T. Eugene Smiley (Key ID: 0xA7EDFD2F).
The signature is valid, but the key is untrusted.

??

Has anyone else been seeing this?

The outside mime boundary contains:
Content-Type: application/x-pkcs7-signature; name=3D"smime.p7s"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=3D"smime.p7s"
Content-Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature

Yet it doesn't verify as S/MIME - it comes up as unknown mime type in KMail=
=2E=20
The block is also VERY long (4.7kb), more like an attached public key rathe=
r=20
than a signature? (yet it lacks the BEGIN/END PGP KEYBLOCK lines or=20
comments). gpg complains of a lack of OpenPGP data when the block is saved =
as=20
a file. The email itself verifies nicely, it's just the double signature th=
at=20
is confusing me.
