Exactly. Pprobably some MUAs need some fixes to work properly with such mails. It would be intresting to ge an overview on how the common MUAs handle message/rfc822 and encryption.

Yes. > BTW: I still think hop-by-hop encryption with TLS, with the Actually we don't have this hop-by-hop anymore. Except for the internal MUAs we don't use relays anymore. In many cases the first hop is gmail and the last hop is gmail (CompuServe 2.0 ;-). Salam-Shalom, Werner -- Die Gedanken sind frei.
