Details

(Keywords: meta) 

About half of the signed emails I receive from other Thunderbird & SeaMonkey
users arrive showing invalid signatures, because the message was altered by
an MTA while in transit, or at its destination.  Common alterations include:
- changing line endings
- removing trailing spaces from lines
- converting from 8-bit to 7-bit encodings.  
- Appending a mailing list blurb to the end of message text.

There have been many bugs filed about various aspects of this problem.
This bug exists to track the others.
