I've been trying to get mutt (1.2.5i) working, and have had
fairly good success until I started fiddling with gpg.
I've got gpg 1.0.3 installed and working -- I can generate detached
signed/encrypted messages without any trouble from the command line.
The problem arises when I try to verify a detached signature.
Sending myself a signed note works fine, and checking my "sent-mail"
folder shows "gpg: Good signature..." on the email I've sent.
However, when I receive the inbound copy of that email from the
mailserver (vie fetchmail 5.5.0 and my local MTA, courier) the same
message shows a bad signature. All pgp signatures (including those
seen in this forum) register as "bad".
I would have thought fetchmail or courier was munging something, but
the I tried writing the MIME parts (text/plain and pgp/signature) from
both versions of my test message to files, then checking with gpg.
Neither one works. Somehow, mutt must be generating a signature for a
slightly different file than the one I am. Any thoughts?
