Subject: pgppine - decrypt problem

Using Pine v3.95-2 in conjunction with pgppine on
a linux box I've run into a problem with decryption of messages
sent from pgp-aware mailers running under DOS/Win.  Messages
from other Unix boxes are fine.

	Decryption fails due to incorrect line lengths, which
I believe stems from the DOS cr/lf.  Command line decryption
of these same messages works flawlessly, so I believe I've
overlooked some setting in Pine to deal with the conversion.

	Is anyone aware of a method to deal with this problem?
Thanks for any suggestions.

Mike

You need to talk to the author of the script, Roland Rosenfeld, who is a
very friendly and helpful guy. By the way, if you're tired of typing your
password every time, check the hacked pgp-pine "papp" by Aldo Valente.

Later,
