Hi Leo,
you seem to have tried and set up The PGP sig check quite well. The use of
the term "invalid" is easily misleading newcomers, as it only means that
you haven't signed that particular key yourself. Of course you won't do this
before you feel certain that this key really belongs to that person.
For validating the signature it's much more important to look at the
signature status. If it's "good" you can be sure that the mail you're
reading is exactly the one that was sent. A "bad" signature means that
something has been changed on its way. So, don't worry too much about the
"invalid"... (Btw. if you check my signature on this mail, I'd hope it
will turn out "good", but most probably it will be "invalid", as you can't
know if I am the person that I pretend to be... ;o) )

Cheers
Peter
