I did the equivalent: I saved to a file, edited, signed the file, and
sent that in the body of a message. It still didn't work. For future
use, I will keep this in mind.
I just got off the phone with one of their support people. It appears
that the change from mail-from authorization to PGP authorization had
gotten lost or something, so they had me still as mail-from. So no
amount of finagling would have helped. And of course, their brain-dead
software that ships a generic error message on any error sent
incorrect diagnostics.
