I occasionally see my posts as invalid, yet I can't see anything different about them. Also, one particular list that I use routinely marks my signatures as invalid. I know that that particular one is caused by something routinely added by their server. As usual, this is risk assessment. If you normally get OK messages from that person and get the odd invalid one, look at whether there is anything important, security-wise, and make a decision. If you are getting them all the time then it may be worth deleting that key and asking the person in question to send an .asc file direct to you, which can then be imported. At least you'll know you are checking against a good key. Just a few ideas :-) Anne
