FTR, I don't read messages which arrive on discussion lists as

someone else quoted your attachment back to the list.

I didn't even notice that. Looks like Mahogany unwraps some attachment
types automatically. Michelle's seems to have been created by the way
pgp (gpg) is set up. I just got a little tag at the bottom of the
message stating that there was a good signature from an untrusted key
-- even though I have Mahogany set to use it's "text only" message
viewing interface.

I noticed it.  Ugly.  This list is supposed to be text-only.  I wish
people would stop putting MIME/PGP stuff in.  Regarding authentication,
a participation help-list is not a likely place for someone to
pretend to be you with malicious intent; but even if that did happen,
you would just tell us and we would believe you.  :-)

Try looking at your messages with mutt or mailx or some other common
*nix mail program to see how they look, folks.
