In an off-list message to Matías, in *Spanish*, I explained to him that
I had received his e-mail with three attachments, and that his signature
verifies.


The first attachment is his public key keyblock.

The second attachment (with the .sig extension) seems to be the detached
signature of the previous attachment. It seems to contain binary
(unreadable) content, and when used to verify, the result is bad
signature. I explained to Matías that when he was offered by Enigmail
either to sign the e-mail but not the attachment, or to sign each part
separately and send everything in-line, or to sign the e-mail and the
attachment and send everything in PGP/MIME format, he had apparently
selected the second option.

The third attachment is a plain text file named Part 1.4, that repeats
the standard footer stamped by this list's server to e-mails that are
processed by it:

I explained to Matías that it is possible (I am not sure at all) that
his @gmail account "detached" this list stamp into a separate text file.
I have seen this happen with users of @gmail accounts.


As an "exercise" I sent my message to Matías, with my public key
attached, in PGP/MIME format, signed and encrypted.
