You're not the first to mention it to me, but I've also had plenty of people tell me it verifies fine. Works perfectly here: [-- PGP output follows (current time: Mon 14 Mar 2011 04:54:43 PM CDT) --] gpg: Signature made Thu 10 Mar 2011 12:36:36 PM CST using DSA key ID DFBEAD02 gpg: Good signature from "Derek D. Martin <redacted>" gpg: aka "Derek D. Martin <redacted>" [-- End of PGP output --] So, while I'd like to figure out how to make it not fail for you, since I can't reproduce the problem, I'm at a loss. Could be a buggy gpg, but I'm using (I believe) the latest my provider provides... Could also be a buggy Mutt, I believe I'm running some nightly snapshot, but I haven't heard of any such bugs either. I see my OpenSSL package is slightly out of date, but I doubt that's the problem. Given that many people can indeed verify it, I'm inclined to think that it's not actually wrong, per se... > I've tried to contact you about this outside this list, but you > don't make it very easy for people to contact you directly. Indeed I don't... An artefact of spam prevention strategy in a previous life. It hardly matters anymore thanks to several people posting my address in searchable forums such as this one, but this was originally done to prevent spam. No one ever seems to believe me, but I can assure you it was extremely effective, until someone decided to "teach me a lesson"... for several years I received (as in, delivered to my *server*, not my inbox) less than 5 spam messages per WEEK. Now it's more like 500 per day. The point, FWIW, was to not have the spam delivered in the first place, so that filtering was not necessary. Filtering only solves part of the problem, suffers from false negatives and false positives, and busy servers consume more power than sleepy ones. PART of the reason I sign all my posts is to provide a way for real humans to get in touch with me, if they really so desire. -- Derek D.
