If you're going to do this, I'd much prefer that you put this in the header or in a Comment: field in the PGP block. My mail program automatically verifies all signed messages (except those that get trashed by MIME-mailers), but if it's got cack like this at the top of the message then it (deliberately) displays the whole thing and doesn't verify the signature. This is in some respects a bug in my program, however I've been unable to come up with a sensible method of dealing with messages when only part of them is signed. Mark
