If people are throwing away MIME messages with a single "text/plain" section then they are firmly in the wrong. All of the "modern" text and GUI mailers display this properly, inline, as a plain old text message.
Per the recently posted stats for members of *this* list: Microsoft 38.71% Mozilla 11.41% Eudora 10.86% I'm using a recent version of the #3 mailer, which I would think qualifies as a "modern" GUI mailer. It presents PGP-MIME messages as an attachment with a format it doesn't know how to read. I'm no more interested in upgrading (or changing) my mailer to deal with *this* attachment type than I am in upgrading to deal with text/html attachments. What part of "it is rude to expect all members of a large and diverse mailing list to accept and parse your particular attachment format" isn't perfectly clear? Netiquette. It's been around a looooong time. You might try following it. jc
