That is intresting matter why outlook respond gpg-mime signature also with
other clients than sylpheed, at least mutt with gpg-mime and balsa with 
gpg-mime and evolution with gpg-mime does that.
Older outlooks also respond with the word begin<space><space>
I haven't heard why these features are in outlook?
I don't believe it is cause its broken they have some another purpose for
that behaving, just don't know what?
Is it cause outlook can run scripts so well or what?
