Likewise.

Yeah, I know HTML is bad on newsgroups. I didn't realize that when I
installed FireGPG to sign messages while in Gmail that it started
handling my html/plain text content differently.

Oops.

That said: Is S/MIME / OpenPGP readable on these various clients?
There's no HTML, the text body is just encoded in base64.

I haven't actually subscribed to a usenet newsgroup in eons upon eons.
If its not readable as S/MIME then I'll switch to inline PGP... that's
just a slightly terrible solution for other places I have to talk and
I'll have to take extra care to remember to manually check the settings
based upon where I'm talking.

Or configure multiple personalities with the same email address but
different settings, so all you have to do is switch personalities
appropriately.

I'm re-sending this same message as the OpenPGP S/MIME attachment format
-- just so test if its actually readable by news clients in general. I
have absolutely no idea. Not touched a news client in years and years,
as I said.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

I run Thunderbird with the OpenPGP add-on, and I hadn't noticed anything
at all strange about your posts :).

regards
Steve
