Well, in an ideal world, all email would be signed, and a web of trust
exist. That would certainly help a great deal with my spam problem.
But Michael is right - we're never going to reach that world until the
signatures aren't displayed by email software in the same category as
"PleaseReadThisImportantDocument.odt". Email software has got used to
not displaying images as attachments if they are inlined in an HTML form
of the message. Email software which does not support verifying
signatures should still be smart enough to keep them out of people's faces.
