I will believe that when I get an -s signed message from someone for
whom I do not have a key.  Maybe mark will oblige, as I do not have his key.

I just discovered something interesting.  TB 60 obscures the clear-text
preface after auto-decrytion, but TB 2.0.0.24 (the one I am using now)
shows both mixed content *with* the decrypted part.  I like the way the
older TB/Enigma operates!   But sadly, I may have to leave TB 2.0.0.24
when my Win10 pc is ready to use.  :(
