I just can't get the hang of verifying a signed cleartext message. In
this case it's one I sent to myself.
First, I cannot access any kind of "PGP menu" in the index or pager,
like I can when composing a message. So I have to pipe the signes
message to 'pgpv' and it says that I have a detached sig, and asks what
file it pertains to, and of cousre I have no filename to give it.
I can sign a message via my editor so that the sig is included in the
text, and I can verify such a message without error.
I've read the Mutt page, the PGP-Notes.txt, and whatever else I can
find, but no joy.
Typical header info:
[-- Attachment #1 --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Encoding: quoted-printable, Size: 0.1K --]
[-- Attachment #2 --]
[-- Type: application/pgp-signature, Encoding: 7bit, Size: 0.2K --]
For the record, here's the output of 'mutt -v'

What am I missing here?
