I just had to rise to the bait. PGP/MIME is a function of the MUA, not
of the encryption system used (GPG or PGP), and with the majority of
PGP/GPG compliant MUAs NOT recognising PGP/MIME, how can it be "the
right way".
No matter what I would like, if my encrypted or signed message cannot
be decrypted or verified the other end, its pointless sending it.
