Steven:
You're attaching something like a 6k mime-encoded signature file to your
emails, a "pkcs7" signature? I don't know what this is. My mutt is
choking on it, but that may be because it's not the latest version. I'm
more concerned about the 6k overhead on every email you send,
particularly those to the list. What's the purpose of this file?
