[aklug] Ecartis and PGP

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

I noticed that my mail clients (Mutt & Thunderbird) are not able to
verify most of the PGP sigs sent to the AKLUG. It seems like this is
because Ecartis converts the attached sig to inline text, and then
inserts extra text between the sig and the message text ("-- Attached
file included as plaintext... etc.") So Thunderbird just says
"Error - No valid armored OpenPGP data block found".

But Kenneth's sig seems to be verifiable, as he includes his inline from
the start, with "start PGP" and "end PGP" delimiters.

Has the list every discussed this problem? Does the list server need to
mangle the messages this way? Or do we all need to switch over to real
inline sigs? (I thought I heard inline sigs were kind of outdated.)
