Unless there's been a new version of the BkGPG plugin recently for=20
Becky2, that plugin recognises PGP/MIME to RFC2015 only and NOT to RFC=20
3156 as well.  This causes a verification error in those messages=20
produced by MUAs that support both RFCs and the BkGPG plugin used to do=20
just this.

Again, unless there are some MUAs with an updated PGP/MIME=20
compatibility, the only two in Windows that I know that supports=20
PGP/MIME to RFC2015 and RFC3156 are Mozilla Mail with the Enigmail=20
plugin, and Pegasus with the appropriate GPG plugin.

RFCs are the internet standards in this regard and when I last looked,=20
only Pegasus and Mozilla Mail could be regarded as standards compliant=20
with regard to PGP/MIME.
