After searching good way to read gpg signed mailing list
I came to following conclusion:
Q1: Check sig only upon request (This is easy, did it!)
I did this. Add macro to .muttrc (with others I defined)
---
macro index S ":toggle pgp_verify_sig\n" # define S
macro pager z ":toggle pager_stop\n" # stop at the end (z)?
bind pager \' toggle-quoted # T is hard to use
macro index c <change-folder>?\n\t # redefine c
---
Q2: Check sig in background (Too difficult to do now)
Someone mailed me info on this. Checking in background with
progress indicator is difficult to implement but procmail
may achieve similar goal. (Anyone knows example???)
Q3: Sig display at the end. (Let me not worry now...)
I guess same as Q2.
Since procmail filter seems complicated, I will use
:toggle pgp_verify_sig trick for reading mailing list with
many signed mails. (debian-user,...)
