I've just opened the certificate on your email and all it tells me is
that it's valid. So what? If I'm suspicious about your post then I can
get more information from the headers of your email than from any
'anonymous' certificate, as anyone who has kill-filed the participants
in a newsgroup flame war can testify.

My 2p worth is that these validated sigs and PGP garbage are just not
relevant in a non-critical situation like this list (I'm not
denigrating the value of the information here - just the importance
being attached to the carrier of the message).
