Nice job. You touched just about everything. Someone mentioned in an
earlier post about inline vs. attachment for the signature. Inline is
deprecated. There is a problem however in that Outlook (Express) doesn't
know what to do with the PGP/Mime attachment and then doesn't display
the body of the message correctly. If I send where I'm likely to know
that they are not using Windows, such as this list, then I use the
attachment. If I have a doubt and someone may be using OE, and I
actually want them to read it and not throw it in the trash I have to
inline the signature.
