It's worth a lot.

Since the rational behind this thread is buried in a long convoluted
thread about PGP/MIME vs PGP/Inline, allow me to re-explain.  I imagine
some people got sick of that thread and are ignoring it.

It seems Robert experienced the "Outlook Express" problem on his Droid,
where a PGP/MIME message didn't get displayed properly on his phone, and
instead showed a blank message.

I just wanted to gague how severe the problem was, by getting feedback
from various people's smartphones.

So if you've got a smartphone, and you check your email on it, please do
reply to this thread, letting me know:

- The service provider

- The make and model of the phone.

- The droid version.

- The email application(s) installed.

- If said application(s) displayed the text of a PGP/MIME message so
that you could read the message.

- If said application(s) could verify a message.  (The answer here is
probably no, but it seems like at least one person said K-9 mail could
verify PGP/MIME.)

- Any other pertinent information.

That'll help everyone gauge the severity of the problem and adjust their
preferences accordingly.

Thanks,
