Hey, same here.  Oh, darn.

Oy.


% 
% So, short answer: Eudora can send to Mutt, but Mutt can't send to
% Eudora, and it's Eudora's fault.

FWIW, I have been able to send with mutt-0.95.4i and pgp5; my recipient
may whine a bit, but he's been reading the messages well for quite a
while now (since his upgrade a few months ago).

In addition, I never have a problem reading his mail, but that could be
because I'm using the procmail recipe from PGP-Notes and don't have to
worry about it any more :-)


% 
% (Actually there are ways to make Mutt send messages that Eudora can
% handle, but these are kludgy and don't involve proper MIME.  I think
% they involve macros.  Again, check the web or archives.)

I tried sending old-style messages with pgp_create_traditional; he tells
me that Eudora detaches the message and he has to go and find it and
open it (he chooses to use Word, of all things!), and the text is there.

I searched both mutt archives and a teeny bit of the web in general, but
didn't find anything.  Is "the old way" what you meant, or do you hint at
something else?
