TechMail-PEM-a7 is now available. This version fixes two bugs
(hopefully) and adds more PCAs to the list of accepted PCAs.

Bugfixes:

1) The PEM routines now correctly compute GMT as long as you use the Map
Control Panel to set you location (the Mac "ticks" localtime and the PEM
routines have to convert this back to GMT).

2) The auto filling done by the TextEdit routines tended to create lines
with a trailing space. MIC-CLEAR messages with these spaces would
sometimes get removed in flight resulting in signature verification
errors at the recipient side. This should happen less often now (I
explicitely check for a trailing space and nuke it).

The following PCAs are now supported:

The MIT PCA (experimental)
Trusted Information Systems PCA
RSA Data Security's Low Assurance PCA
US Government PCA (experimental)

TechMail-PEM-a7 is available via anonymous FTP for U.S. and Canadian
"persons." FTP to net-dist.mit.edu and look in /pub/TechMail-PEM. Note:
If net-dist.mit.edu believes your site not to be in the U.S. or Canada,
you will be unable to access this directory. Machines not registered in
the DNS will also be denied access.

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you had to increase the memory available to
TechMail-PEM-a6 (via the "Get Info" Finder Dialog), remember to do so
again with TechMail-PEM-a7. The current default memory parition is 512K
which is probably too small for many people. I will probably increase
this value in later versions.

Problems should be reported directly to me at "jis(_at_)mit(_dot_)edu(_dot_)" 
Please be
patient with me if I don't respond to problems via e-mail right away, I
am very busy at the moment.
