I've made a few tests with a friend using PGP6(including plugin for

or MIME, with or without signatures) I tried friendly works :(

 NB : I've seen some criticizes about mime signatures, does it mean that
 I should use inline signatures instead ? (I used to limit inline
 signatures to usenet newgroup)=20=20
