I can imagine it might be used for plausible deniability: if some law
enforcement agency would force you to decrypt the messsage, you could
claim you can't and you didn't read it anyway because it's corrupted.
Of cours
Ok, will do, in this case they send 10 files each day and maybe 1 a week errors
out like this...
Thanks again,
Eric

I am currently using GPG 1.4.3 on my mac powerbook G4 OSX 10.4.6 I hope that
this is the right forum to post this question, but when i send an email with
attachment and encrypt and sign it, it converts the message into two
attachments, one that says "mime-attachment" and one that says "pgp.asc".

I am experimenting with the OpenPGP smartcard. I have two OpenPGP smart
cards (smartA and smartB) and I want to verify that I can restore my
on-card generated private key should I loose the master card
(smartA). I only want to verify that I can do it - not discuss the
merits of on-card vs. off-card
