[imp] Re: multipart/signed

[Ilya]

yes mutt has two ways of creating gpg signed messages:
1 with application/pgp
2 multipart

first method is preffered I think, it looks like this:
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: application/pgp; x-action=sign; format=text
Content-Disposition: inline; filename="msg.pgp"
User-Agent: Mutt/1.3.28i


-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

iii
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----
Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (FreeBSD)
Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org

iqIAn0KnJbIvw2+H/79TeOnKpR+gXGwy
=w89U
-----END PGP SIGNATURE-----


second looks like this:
Content-Type: multipart/signed; micalg=pgp-sha1;
	protocol="application/pgp-signature"; boundary="rwEMma7ioTxnRzrJ"
Content-Disposition: inline
User-Agent: Mutt/1.3.28i

--rwEMma7ioTxnRzrJ
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Disposition: inline

ii

--rwEMma7ioTxnRzrJ
Content-Type: application/pgp-signature
Content-Disposition: inline

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----
Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (FreeBSD)

-----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

--rwEMma7ioTxnRzrJ--


IMP seems to put pgp identification info into attachment part


I wonder which method is more RFC compliant.
