If people are so dump, they don't know how to unsubscribe, one gpg header/footer more doesn't change anything. there are ~10000 posts without gpg sigs here, and enought documentation when you join the list and on the web page. pointing to this is a weak excuse imo > My system wastes so much time going to the net just to tell me there's an > "Untrusted key from xxx" on list messages it isn't funny.

But for general discussion lists --- why? why not? why only debian-security? is others so different? should we not all have gpg keys and eventually encrypt our mails when sending to each other? - -- [ Clemens Schwaighofer -----=====:::::~ ] [ TBWA\ && TEQUILA\ Japan IT Group ] [ 6-17-2 Ginza Chuo-ku, Tokyo 104-0061, JAPAN ] [ Tel: +81-(0)3-3545-7703 Fax: +81-(0)3-3545-7343 ] [ http://www.tequila.co.jp http://www.tbwajapan.co.jp ] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFCIocbjBz/yQjBxz8RAr30AJ0Xuy7SHte8PStY4Z/ZbxRAhJ6CngCg5SKy rSxyX1imXrlXs/CBRGwijdg= =fOhG -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
