Description Guy Van Sanden 2002-05-24 12:47:00 UTC
Description of Problem:    
When sending *clearsigned* PGP messages to    
evolution, it consequently fails to verify them    
    
Steps to reproduce the problem:    
1.     
Use this example:    
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----    
Hash: SHA1    
    
"Great spirits have always found violent    
opposition from mediocre minds.    
The    
latter cannot understand it when a man does not    
thoughtlessly submit to    
hereditary prejudices but honestly and    
courageously uses his    
intelligence."    
- - Albert Einstein    
    
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----    
Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux)    
    
iD8DBQE87jPG1nCigyjxbDURAs6eAKCeriHnWld42xkIEnAMBi3rwhCG1ACfevG5    
D0cKQ6aSSgmANE74IpaDojE=    
=u3Sy    
-----END PGP SIGNATURE-----    
    
Send it as is to a mail account (and import my    
key ID  28F16C35).   
   
Now click on the lock in evolution, it says:   
"gpg: armor header: Version: GnuPG v1.0.7  
(GNU/Linux)  
gpg: Signature made Fri 24 May 2002 14:36:22  
CEST using DSA key ID 28F16C35  
gpg: BAD signature from "Guy Van Sanden  
<Guy.Van.Sanden@Pandora.be>""  
  
Save the message to a file test.asc  
run "gpg --verify test.asc", it gives:  
"gpg: Signature made Fri 24 May 2002 14:36:22  
CEST using DSA key ID 28F16C35  
gpg: Good signature from "Guy Van Sanden  
<Guy.Van.Sanden@Pandora.be>""  
  
    
2.   Note that no PGP/Mime extensions where  
used.  
    
Additional Information:    
Running evoluiton 1.0.5 / gpg 1.0.7 on SuSE 8.0
