What you are seeing is PGP/MIME, a standards based protocol for sending secure and authenticated messages. For some reason, you are using a non-standards compliant mail program with known security risks that can not recognize PGP/MIME as a valid MIME type. This could be why you are so concerned with opening attachments. Please filter all messages with the words PGP, Secure, and/or NANOG to prevent this misunderstanding in the future. - -- [email protected] - PGP KeyID#: 0xFB966670 Anti-Microsoft Zelot since 1989 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE9K2oquLPldPuWZnARAv3qAJ9DVFQsFcCQdMOtAevy5j36BtMlpQCfc3Wk 81TaUdycdmmxAWKFmXlYf+c= =DOCd -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
