Problem with mail to news...
Because I find news far easier to deal with than email for mailing
lists, I'm filtering debian-*@lists.debian into a series of local
newsgroups (local.debian.*, in fact) with procmail, inn2, and
mail2news (mail2news isn't the debian package, although I think it's a
newer version of the same program. The debian version was giving me
all sorts of "Message-id not found" messages, so I went from source)
(all this is running on Woody, BTW)
Here is the problem:
Whilst most things are going fine, my news reader is having
difficulties with some messages, where I only see the mailing-list
added signature. For example:

-------------------------------------
The key thing thats the same about all of missing messages is that
they have "Content-Type: multipart/signed; micalg=pgp-sha1;" headers
inside them. I assume that means they are pgp signed, but is there
anything I can get procmail to parse them though to turn it into
something my client can read, like text/plain?
Yours in total sincerity,

The 'colors' vary, some points are the faintest blue - [but] we could
just as well describe them as a faint wafting of the smell of buttered
toast drifting on the breeze, we shall accept the inadequacy of
the language to describe that which cannot be described and continue..
