More to the point, you know that if it's signed by my key, it's from me, even if I do occasionally slip up and use the work e-mail address when I should be using my personal one (Bad mutt! No biscuit!) > Sure --- but his signatures mean nothing to Graham as long as he uses > Outlook, which was the original problem :) Unless, of course he has visited http://www.pgpi.org/ and downloaded one of the free Windows version of PGPi which includes a plugin for Outlook: http://www.pgpi.org/cgi/download.cgi?filename=PGPFW658Win32.zip Although it seems that PGP Corp have decided that the latest versions of their software will only include the e-mail plugin in the pay-for variant. Dunno if that software will work with WinXP either. But thems the breaks when you use commercial OSes.
