If you don't have PGP installed, OE sees all messages as attachments which cannot be quoted for reply. The signature, being "application/something" is of the type that people fear may contain a virus. Most messages of mine were simply deleted. Those who did not simply delete always felt it necessary to explain to me why my email was broken. Not one of the idiots considered that it was their email client. > But I haven't been a 'doze user for a couple of years now, and > haven't kept up with what M$ is doing.

And MS hasn't kept up with what the rest of the world was doing or bothered to implement RFC standards... _______________________________________________ EuG-LUG mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.efn.org/cgi-bin/listinfo/eug-lug
