Well, this is an alternative way to send signed messages.  It's not s/mime.
(It is the way I do it on the rare occasions when I send a PGP signed
message.)

I redirected your message from Entourage, where I read mailing lists but
where I didn't remember having bothered to set up PGP capabilities, to an
account I read with Apple Mail.

And I asked Apple's Mail program to verify the signature...it went out and
got your public key and said the message was good.

Then I checked the Script menu in Entourage, and found that I had set up the
PGP scripts.  PGP (PGP 8.0 commercial from PGP Corp) told me
*** PGP SIGNATURE VERIFICATION ***
*** Status:   Good Signature from Invalid Key
*** Alert:    Verify signer's key before trusting.
*** Signer:   Sander Tekelenburg <email@hidden> (0xD782A29D)
*** Signed:   Monday, September 13, 2004 3:58:51 PM US/Pacific
*** Verified: Monday, September 13, 2004 4:43:08 PM US/Pacific


I suspect by "invalid key" it means that I haven't told it I trust the key,
but I'm not sure about that.

But as I say, this is a different signing method than we've been discussing.
It accomplishes much the same thing, without creating extra MIME parts.
