A checksum is not neccessary, it's obviously not the same. KMail stores the
files with \n line endings instead of \r\n. In order to successfully verify
the signature I had to convert the KMail file to \r\n and to remove the \r\n
(both) on the last line until I added a \n to my text signature.
...
I just checked the files after the conversion to \r\n. There were more
differences (probably not relevant for this problem). The KMail file has an
addidional line at the beginning:

Furthermore the KMail file has \r\n at the end of the last line, the TB file
does not. But the signed part and the signature are stored identically.
