I'm aware that it's sliding well OT, but I absolutely agree with Axel and I sign
all my messages with PGP. Until some real fraud outbreaks (I have seen a few),
people will just not realise the importance of keys. If my supervisor's
secretary minds the redundant characters that are meaningless in Outlook, then
I just don't give a damn.

Likewise, if your mail system fails to handle subject lines with a [signed]
postfix, blame your system, not the mailer.

Just my 2 cents... I am not being critical in any way...
