After some clarification, the problem actually is:
------
Not exactly, My mailer handles encrypted data that's embedded as the
body of the email fine. The problem is when the data comes as an
attachment without an extension on it. Without a .pgp or .asc
extension Eudora doesn't know to pass it to pgp for decryption. I can
still decrypt it but I have to detach and save it with a .pgp
extension and then run pgp against the file. Like I said it's not a
big deal, I just figured I would ask.
---
So what I'd really like to do is either
* _not_ treat pgp messages as attachments, or
* find some way to put a .pgp extension on an attachment name
...but what confuses me is that I look at a message I sent, and I see:
Date: Mon, 21 Aug 2000 09:15:38 -0400
From: Eric Osborne <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
To: Eric Osborne <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Subject: KEEP: foo pgp 1
Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: multipart/encrypted;
protocol="application/pgp-encrypted";
boundary="EeQfGwPcQSOJBaQU"
Content-Disposition: inline
User-Agent: Mutt/1.2i
--EeQfGwPcQSOJBaQU
Content-Type: application/pgp-encrypted
Content-Disposition: inline; filename="msg.asc"
Version: 1
--EeQfGwPcQSOJBaQU
...so it's already called 'msg.asc'. Is there any way to change that
to, say, 'msg.pgp' to see if it makes his mailer happy? I didn't see
anything in the FM like pgp_attachment_filename...
thanks!
