Topic: Problems with Gmail and PGP-compatibility
When I click Inline in GMail it seems to work ok and things can be decrypted anyway I want later.
There is some issue with the linebreaks showing up as boxes in the decrypted text though.
When I don't use Inline but just have Encrypt or Sign or booth checked it doesn't seem the output is compatible with anything other then FireGPG though.
If I mail myself I can read it when FireGBG decrypts. But if I try to decrypt and verify manually either with GnuPG or PGP desktop it doesn't work.
They says they decrypted successfully but the output looks something like this:
Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64

Is there a way to fix this? Cause breaking line breaks or breaking everything like this when decrypting with something else then FireGPG really makes it unusable.
Also messages that are signed only can't be verified by other PGP-compatible software. Since it sends the signature as an attachment and there is no file to link it to since that would be the e-mail. Since that doesn't work it would be much better if it could clearsign by default...
