Why do people keep sending "attachments"?
This was just a text article, and not an application (program), so why was it included as an "attachment"?
It's useful for those of us with MIME-enabled mailers, appropriately configured -- PGP is automatically launched to check the signature. It's not useful for others on the list, AFAIK. Pretty please, let's not have another MIME war; I think we drove Amanda Walker away permanently with the last one. Followups directed somewhere other than cypherpunks@toad.com. -Futplex <futplex@pseudonym.com>
