-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- I tried Miron Cuperman's remailer, which requires encrypted input. I noted happily that my automatic signature did not echo back, because it was not part of the encrypted text. I was going to ask how this effected ARA, but Miron has already recognized this problem and proposed a solution. Except for messages to be posted to newsgroups or sent to lists, message bodies are likely to be encrypted with the public key of the recipient. Certainly anyone sending or posting an ARA should also post an "anonymous" public key for the body of the reply. (An anonymous public key is just a key with some nom de plume in the User ID field). Another topic: signed plaintext. Miron's signed plaintext failed the signature check here. This is probably because my editor eliminates trailing blanks. Someone here pointed out that a trailing blank in a blank line may be introduced by an ASCII upload. Until PGP is fixed to eliminate trailing blanks in text, I may have another solution. The editor on this WAFFLE system has an ability to UPLOAD files using (for example) ZMODEM. I have modified the Telix SLT file I use so I have a choice of ASCII or Zmodem upload. Proof of pudding is in eating. Check the signature on this upload, which contains several blank lines. I will be checking with you when I get the echo back. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.1 iQCVAgUBKzi5VN4nNf3ah8DHAQH+dAP/eD8opIrO19Led9SwNDIX6LOiZqlmpOZV jX/30PJ50/1n8BlYowvDaDcPSp6R0JNggYcOg17G88MrpYHq0ODxw0w/wXd+1MHS Twhu2HUy03tJFmbOOX+kVlk2N2RFGag3063QV6SaweVMLg9DEMyPDHiSbeCTxFR7 RapDSiNV/w4= =imWV -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- edgar@spectrx.saigon.com (Edgar W.
