The issue is the ability to modify something someone wrote in a way they never intended. One should NOT be able to modify a message without indicating PLAINLY that the original writer's message has been changed. The inability to easily do so is good for the 'sanctity' of the original poster's intentions. Most folks (like me) don't go to the trouble to verify signing keys, and accept the message as what the poster intended. I'll probably NEVER be convinced of the security of encryption schemes, and the lack of 'Big Brother' back doors to them. ;-) -- Warmest tropical wishes, Spike First Rule for Corners: Slow In, Fast Out /"\ ASCII Ribbon Campaign - Against HTML Mail \ / If it aint a webpage it shouldn't be HTML.
