Well, it means that mutt doesn't automatically verify it for me, but
I don't much mind. |gpg --verify is quite easy.

(Incidentally, saving each of the attachments to my PGP/MIME
messages and then doing a gpg --verify <sig file> <msg file> would
work just fine for you.)

Out there in the ether somewhere is a sample .muttrc that sets all
the keybindings to match pine's. You might try that. (Use google.)

Yep, it's pine. Because, despite people wanting it for years, U
Washington refuses to include proper multipart MIME support in their
MUA.

See:

Oh, and "the author" is kind of a laughable concept with pine.
