Forensics and reporting is about all one can do with a broken signature

It's up to recipients. I they really care about whether some mesage was  
genuine, they might find it worthwhile to try to deduce from the  
diagnostic headers what had got lost/added, and then try to reverify a  
corrected version.

A lot of work, but useful in some cases, and always useful to identify  
sites that had caused the problem and for issuing LARTs accordingly.
