You mean the patch breaks signing for non-HTML mails? From what I read from 
the mail I got the impression that we are only talking about HTML mails here.

Could you please explain this a bit more to one of the two persons left not 
using signatures. Why doesn't it make sense to add support for inline 
signatures on html parts? Is what you call "inline signatures" the same what 
Don called "traditional GnuPG Signing/Encrpyting"? OpenPGP/MIME is something 
different, and it makes sense to use that to sign html mail, as well as 
S/MIME, right? Does KMail from KDE 3.2 already support this or is it 
something from the aegypten branch?
