Well, if the patch altered the behaviour, that's a possibility.

When I enter a bad passphrase into pinentry, sup detects this and
won't send the message...to my knowledge, I'm not able to get a
multipart/gpg message sent if I don't enter a proper passphrase.

I think that's reasonable.  My next thought is that there is a small
bug in the mime parsing (or creating) code...

Does anyone else have thoughts on what would cause broken gpg
signatures?  I've previously had issues when using gpg2 instead of
gpg1, but that was completely the fault of gpg2 (or my use of it,
anyway).  Switching to gpg1 resolved the problem at that time.  In
this instance, Mark isn't able to validate my signatures and I was
able to validate his until just recently...I'm now hit-and-miss with
his.

Thoughts?

Thanks
-Ben
