(10.8.2 running GPGTools + GPGMail compiled from /experimental)

Is it possible to sign an email and have the signature appear inline automatically, and not as an attachment to the message? Enigmail has this capability.

Thanks!

    Hi,

    no, that's currently not possible in GPGMail. Inline PGP is a legacy and non-standardized method of using PGP within messages. Many clients still support creating such messages because some of them don't implement the PGP/MIME standardized method of using PGP within messages yet.
    In GPGMail 2.x we've decided to only support PGP/MIME for composing messages, because it indeed is a standard and should hopefully be adopted by all gpg plugins.

    We might add inline PGP if many people request it, but it's not high priority right now.

    Thanks for the reply, I wasn't aware it was a standard-busting thing :)
