I've had PGP AUTH broken for the last 6 years, and had the same kind of experience. I just finished an ENTIRE MONTH of calling a couple of times a week to get a simple host record fixed. In one call, somebody changed me from PGP AUTH to MAIL-FROM without effectively confirming that I was really me. VeriSign needs to cut their losses and start over. -- J.D.
