You should have no trouble communicating with PGP 8.0 users when you use
GPG and KMail.  However, the MUA they use might not support PGP/MIME to=20
the latest standards, so it is best to avoid using PGP/MIME
unless you KNOW the MUA supports it.  Later versions of KMail (with KDE=20
3.1.1) also support PGP/MIME but I can't as yet check the compatibility=20
as I'm still chugging along using KDE 3.0 :-)
