I've never really heard it up here (Glasgow).
On a unrealted note, my Edgy Evolution doesn't want to sign these
messages, it just says:
Could not create message.
Because "can't connect to
`/home/bruce/.gnome2/seahorse-BbuZ1L/S.gpg-agent': Connection refused
gpg: can't connect to `/home/bruce/.gnome2/seahorse-BbuZ1L/S.gpg-agent':
connect failed
gpg: writing to `-'
gpg: DSA/SHA1 signature from: "BD187B5A Bruce Cowan (This the fourth one
- don't use any others) <bruce.cowan at dsl.pipex.com>"
", you may need to select different mail options.
