Hello,

I have an issue with gpg signing emails with sup. The header of sent
emails look like this:
Content-Type: multipart/signed; protocol=""application/pgp-signature""; boundary="=-1204074034-949437-9467-7738-1-="; micalg="pgp-sha1"
Note the double quotation marks around
application/pgp-signature. (I checked it in the "Sent", and of course on
my other e-mail account.) Apparently they throw off at least mutt and
claws-mail, so that they don't recognize the protocol for the
attachment. However, if I manually edit the header to have only one set
of quotation marks, the signature is recognized.

I took a peek on the sources (crypto.rb), and I don't know how the
double quotation marks could be created. Anybody else having this
problem?

Thanks,
  Jan

That's  a  ruby-mail  bug  with  a  working patch [1], however ruby-mail is no
longer actively maintained :(

[1]: "[2661] set_boundary doubles quotes in params which already contained a quote"
http://rubyforge.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2661&group_id=446&atid=1756

I did hear from Matt Armstrong recently that he was starting to maintain
it again. At least, he released a 1.0.0 last month that has Ruby 1.9
modifications. But nothing since.

Does the following workaround help? (Completely untested.)

diff --git a/lib/sup/crypto.rb b/lib/sup/crypto.rb

Yes, both fixes work. (Didn't try them simultaneusly though.)

Thanks a lot,
  Jan

Ok, I'm going to merge this into both next and master.
