While dealing with the one person I've ever had complain about my PGP/MIME signed mail[0], I realized that you could probably write software to do a machine transform of a standard PGP/MIME message into the older flat format. When you look at them in a dumb editor, there is almost no difference in format. -- Brooks [0] As far as I'm concerned his problem was that his mailer was a lot dumber then it though it was. It thought it could handle MIME, but it screwed up the handling of multipart messages.
