Correct. Newer versions of PGP and GPG add a line to identify the hash
used. 2.6.x always used the same hash so it was unnecessary, and thus does
not recognise it as being correct.

This is probably a signature from somebody using a DSA or El Gamal key,
which are used by newer versions of PGP and GPG (in fact GPG doesn't
natively have support for the RSA keys PGP 2.6.x uses).

A signed message isn't, by definition, encrypted, so you can still read the
text that was sent even if PGP choked on signature verification.
HTH (and somebody correct me if I'm wrong :)
