Well, can't tell for your special case. But there have
always been issues with encoding (7 bit / 8 bit) so it
might be that your emails encoding differs when you send
it from windows or linux (and this may cause some mailer
on the way to change the encoding (and destroy your clear-
signed messages) or not).

Does this problem only occur when you send to mailing
lists? Or does it also occur when you send signed emails
to normal recipients? That would give a strong indication
on where the error actually happens...
