Just a friendly reminder that, according to the extension program's
home page, FireGPG is BETA software. If Jeremy's observation is
correct, sounds like we should be communicating with them about the
problems of sending FireGPG signed messages via gmail to a Mailman
list. (-: That way they can get the kinks worked out before they
compile the versions for PPC OSeX that I need. :-)
