According to a user on the MacGPG-Users list: "I have seen this before, and it *usually* (not consistently) happens with OpenPGP/MIME signed messages from GPGMail. It does not happen with in-line signed messages, nor with encrypted and signed messages (all from GPGMail)." [http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_name=4A37B7B6.4080601%40mac.com] It would appear to be an issue with how GPGMail constructs PGP/MIME messages. -- John P.
