<snip>No, this is an S/MIME signature, basically SSL technology for emails. as it appears much cleaner in modern email clients than PGP. But it appears MUCH cleaner than PGP, and and modern email clients validate the signatures automatically, and without additional software. Also using an S/MIME to sign emails means that I can sign ALL my emails and they won't scare the unwashed masses, not to mention I get the additional benefit of using the CA as a "Trusted Introducer".
