I agree, but I don't have that authority.

Unfortunatley when one mail program is used by so many people, bugs
become features.  This week, we can't fight this.  That means that we
either need to use tools that that can inter-operate with those bugs or
not participate on the Internet.

There is no reason that a PGP signature needs to be sent as an
attachment.  Evolution has got to be changed to add a code block at the
end of the message.
