BTW, I have seen spam using a real person's PGP sig, cut and pasted from one of their messages.

Would you (or anyone else) really edit your config for each new correspondent who sends you a PGP-signed message? I doubt it, I'm afraid. For PGP/GPG to be useful as an unforgeable bonus-points mechanism, it needs key distribution. We can no longer just say "it has *some* PGP signature" -- because spammers are actively forging them, cutting them from other mails, etc. as far as I know the only way to really validate the sig is to (a) ensure the public key is on the keyring and (b) run pgp/gpg at that point. --j. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Free pre-built ASP.NET sites including Data Reports, E-commerce, Portals, and Forums are available now.
