One good thing about lurking: occasionally a little manna falls from
heaven. I copied and pasted your template into Quick Templates, then I
used the backspace button to turn it into one long line.
And it works! In order to comply with a request that Leif Gregory made
of me when I first joined this list in October, 2002, I have been
manually stripping everything below the cut line (delimiter)for months
now, before replying to it on the list. What a joy to use your
expression on this reply to you and have everything gone in one click. :)
Slightly off this subject: many people are not providing a double
hyphen cut line which actually works in writing to this list. My
memory of the way Leif explained it to me is that there should be two
line spaces (two clicks of Enter) both above and below the cut line
(two hyphens plus a click of the space bar).
If the two clicks of Enter below the hyphens don't happen, the cut line
will not function. According to Leif, this model will strip everything below
the cut line in the same way your regular expression MACRO as a
template works. Except it will be the sender who has extended this
courtesy to those who are replying on TBUDL. I practiced it with him, back in
October, and he said what I was doing worked.
Incidentally, wouldn't this work for Gavin:
1) Put the message into the full reading pane with a double-click on its highlighted
line in the message list pane.
2) Click Reply or click the reply Green Arrow, usingthe quick template of your regular
expression MACRO.
3) Read the message in this window, and then click the red X to close it.
4) At that point The Bat! will ask, Save the Message (meaning the reply),
and the correct answer is No, since nothing has been written--the Reply
(text editor) window has simply been used for reading, without the signature,
delightful (to me) cookies, and PGP signatures.
Or is that a bad idea?

I'm not entirely sure this was copied correctly. As you notice at [1]
it still has the PGP header line. The above code should have stripped
it. I think the problem has to do with where you have one of your %-.

I have a feeling a little bit of a nasty word wrap might have caught
somebody somewhere. Notice how on the first line it has the %- on the
end, but the quoted one above has the %- on the second line at the
front. I'm not sure how much of an affect it'd have, but it'd be
willing to guess it breaks the match up on the PGP Header line.

use mine as below, -- new linename and I've not had a problem
with it so far.

The %- at the end of a line tells TB to forget the Enter immediately following the %-. A %- at the beginning or in the middle of a line does nothing. Therefore Melissa's macro was looking for this: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED While it ought to look for -BEGIN PGP SIGNED However Melissa also stated that it ought to be put in one long line, that makes all %- macros rather useless, but it has the effect that the macro works, because there are no faulty line breaks. -- Groetjes, Roelof Current version is 1.62 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

PMMail 2000 doesn't use PGP/MIME and yet it very nicely deals with
the PGP metadata. It does exclude the PGP stuff from the viewer as
it does with the message headers.
In the status bar of the message viewer, you'll see that the message
the message has been PGP signed and whether or not the signature is
good/bad; valid/invalid. You therefore don't have to see the PGP
stuff within the message text and you don't have to manually check
the signature either.
We wonder why other clients never incorporate some of the no brainer

Re: PGP signature removal?
Allie Martin, We wonder why other clients never incorporate some of the no brainer features of TB!. I wonder the same about this feature of PMMail. Exactly right. Good P G P support is one reason I bought Bat. Among other things, I use digital signatures to verify consulting contracts with clients worldwide. My only wish for Bat would be better integration with Gnu P G. Such as a) customizable locations for the Gnu EXE that don't depend upon PATH environment var b) key manager c) integrated Gnu P G distribution/setup with Bat (not an internal implementation of Gnu P G though) -- for setup convenience of inexperienced dummy users who are totally confused by the Gnu P G web sites and public key systems generally -- so that they never have to even look at a Gnu P G website to use it Regards.

Well, at least it could mean something to those who understand its reason for being. True :) I understand their meaning and still think it's a forest of crap. Even if I thought signing messages in a public forum were a brilliant idea, I'd still think it's noise, because it's metadata, not actual message. It belongs in the same category as all the header information that we care about, but don't really need to see. Thanks for the tips. I don't understand that template you gave me very well, but I'm sure I won't remain ignorant for long. (That's not a cry for help, I'm off to the documenation now.) BTW I'm pretty sure some other mailers (Mozilla? KMail?) hide the PGP/GnuPG/OpenPGP metadata from view (which is all I want, not to see it removed), and it seems like a pretty good idea for TB!

And now I want to post my solution for the benefit of anyone else who runs across it: I erased my hard drive a month or so ago; it's something I do periodically to make Windows loose some weight (usually 50% if it's a six-months old installation. I try out a lot of software). After I did this, of course, I re-installed my apps (Including TheBat!) and filled in the mail base from another copy. When I set up the bat I did point it, as always, to my proper keyrings and randseed file. Alas, I forgot to check the box that indicates that I'm using version 6. SO, it was trying to use the version 6 keyrings according to the "internal" method. Neither the public nor the private keyring contained anything it could recognize---and all signatures came up as invalid.
