bad PGP signatures
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Yet another bad PGP signature via e$pam.
Date: Sat, 13 Jan 1996 12:13:03 +0600
To: [email protected]
From: "David K. Merriman" <[email protected]>
Subject: Re: Digital postage and remailer abuse
That's the third today (although the second was fixable by
concatenating the Subject: onto one line.) Would everyone
please get into the habit of formatting their messages to be
much less than 80 columns? All Phil's travails are ill-
rewarded when we can't get basic clearsigning to work via
mailing lists. (Or if we don't bother to *use* clearsigning
via mailing lists, but that is another topic...)
On a related subject, cpunks traffic recently alerted me to how
effective replay attacks can be against PGP. Don't PGP
signatures include a time-stamp from the system clock? I'm
going to get into the habit of including a time-stamp in the
clear-text from now on. (I have sent so many PGP-clearsigned
messages, and many of them quite short, that an attacker could
almost hold up my end of a conversation using them. :-) )
