This is probably dependent on the program using it. With metamail, it
strips the header part of the message part, and therefore doesn't
check the signature correctly. I use the script below to reassemble
every thing, and call it as:
multipart/signed; showpgpmp %F
where "showpgpmp" is the name I give the script.
