You CANNOT simply paste a signed message into Evo and expect the
signature to be valid. The signature covers the entire message,
including the headers Evo adds before sending, so doing this absolutely
guarantees that the signature will be bad.

To use signed messages in Evo, simply click on PGP Sign (or S/MIME sign
if you have the certificate), then hit Send. There's nothing mysterious
about it and messing around with cut and paste from a terminal session
is completely unnecessary.
