Ok, thanks, now the question is a bit off topic.
I tried to use a perl script to automate this, here is the code:
use PGP::Sign;
$PGP::Sign::PGPPATH = "/root/.pgp";
open(DATA, "$path/mutt.header.$$");
@data = <DATA>;
close DATA;
$keyid = "dns\@cia.com.au";
$passphrase = "hello world";
($signature, $version) = pgp_sign($keyid, $passphrase, @data);
open(DATAOUT, ">$path/mutt.header.out.$$");
print DATAOUT "-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----\n\n";
foreach $key (@data) {
print DATAOUT "$key";
}
print DATAOUT "\n\n-----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----\n";
print DATAOUT "Version: $version\n";
print DATAOUT "Charset: noconv\n\n";
print DATAOUT "$signature\n";
print DATAOUT "-----END PGP SIGNATURE-----\n";
close DATAOUT;
$a = `cat $path/mutt.header.out.$$ | mutt -H $path/mutt.header dns\@cia.com.au`;
now, the emails looks the exactly the same as the old style PGP signed
message, but when I view it in mutt, mutt shows that it is just a normal
message. Do I need to add additional header info such as Content-Type??
Or the above just the completely wrong way to do it??
Thanks.
